Welcome to ~PoetryToTheMasses' weekly feature.

Each week I will feature two poem suggested by deviants with some information about the poems and the poets. One poem is from deviantART itself, and the other is not.

Please +favlove this article and watch ~PoetryToTheMasses  or join #Poetry-To-The-Masses to show your support.





There is no feature from outside dA this week as I have not received any suggestions.






Ignorance is Blind (56)You whisper five sweet words,
Then back up six more steps.
You notice all the birds,
But blind, pass o'er the clouds.
Going on you say you're sad,
That you're worried and upset
But then I must be mad-
You're fine when you're with them.
I'm beautiful you say-
Much prettier than them.
Then why is it everyday,
I see you over there?
Maybe you aren't lying,
And maybe it is so.
But why are you not trying,
To see these tears of mine?

Going on you say you're sad,
That you're worried and upset
But then I must be mad-
You're fine when you're with them.

I'm beautiful you say-
Much prettier than them.

Maybe you aren't lying,
And maybe it is so.
But why are you not trying,
To see these tears of mine?

Artist's comments:
"
Theme 56 of my 100 theme challenge-
"Tears".

I put quite a bit of emotion behind this one... Not necessarily the same emotions I am feeling right now, but trust me. There's definitely some truth behind it.


I wrote this poem with the idea of the other person in a relationship ruining it. One who sees what's happening and how it could be fixed, and the other can- or just chooses not- to see anything wrong."

This poem was submitted 
July 31, 2012.
