I agree with you, Teresa, about not using a photograph so the reader has the opportunity to see through your words. Your poem captures the futility of hiding behind eyes that reveal the truth. "facade" needs to be fixed in line one.

Perfect analogy of what we perceive to be right and what actually is.A poem written simply, and with aflow that presented the reader with a clear cut message, some spelling mistakes, but this didn't distract from the flow, well done,cheers, Bill

You certainly captured the person well in this piece and I could quite clearly see them in my mind. You are right, you quite clearly didn't need a picture,your words illustrated them perfectly. An excellent piece, thanks for sharing...Jacob

You really are most observant ant the way you describe those eyes in the second stanza ..."dangle outside the wall" is something else again. I don't think I'd want you looking too hard at me; you can see too much!

Something has happened with the HTML in line 3 'fascade(?)'

Creepy poem this!

Well done. How many masks can be worn, but none can cover how we feel inside. And what is our worth, if to others we look impressive, but to ourselves we are a hidden shielded mess. Masks. Very well done, I really like your poem, and how true it is to far too many people.. makes me feel sad.. Great writing. Very descriptive and emotional/personal. Thank you for sharing.

What a touching poem. It touches my heart a great deal. Low self esteem can be very painful. It's a problem many people have. That makes your poem relatable to others. That makes for an exceptional poem! hanks for sharing

This poem rings true. The eyes don't lie, though we try to hide behind a facade, the eyes will betray what we really do feel inside. You have expressed this well and Kathy is lucky to have someone you sees beyond the 'wall' and cares enough to write a poem, bless you both. Cheers judester
