The Strangers Masquerade
He is a masked stranger
He pretends to be a kind gentleman
An angel sent from heavens doors
He seems as holy as a priest
Others compare him to their god
He is the king of them all
His masquerade is clean, lovely, and majestic
Everyone loves the dreams and hopes this prince can fulfill
But do not be fooled by this mans alias
Underneath his facade lies the foulest convict
No word is horrible enough to accurately describe him
He tricks and fools everyone who glances at him
Like a black widow he catches all in his web
He poisons and murders them in his invisible entanglement
Silently raising others hopes and dreams to the sky
Only to mutilate, destroy, and ruin their lives

An angel sent from heavens doors
He seems as holy as a priest
Others compare him to their god

Everyone loves the dreams and hopes this prince can fulfill
But do not be fooled by this mans alias
Underneath his facade lies the foulest convict
No word is horrible enough to accurately describe him
He tricks and fools everyone who glances at him
Like a black widow he catches all in his web
He poisons and murders them in his invisible entanglement
Silently raising others hopes and dreams to the sky
Only to mutilate, destroy, and ruin their lives

Not thats a masquerade that I'd love to go to, or better yet, host. Like how you build him up then to defile.

You are welcome. Almost scared me how much of this is the type of the thing I'd love to write. Though you wrote it so there's a thing.
Next time I may have to have a bulletproof messenger.

dont be silly, I would never use bullets to hurt anyone, I prefer a sword or magic

Ah, a being after my own heart. Metaphorically of course. Actually getting it would be over your dead corpse.

I will steal your heart over my dead corpse then, for I have many spares ,as I am the MasqueradePrince.

Jokes on you, as this little joker here, Viddax, doesn't have a heart or much of one left. Though watching the guards tear you apart would be an unfortunate sight, no more poems like this!

I never said I would take your whole heart. And why cant I write more poems like this? How else will I describe myself to strangers online.

A dead corpse, as if there was any other type of corpse, hardly greets its guests. Still, take my heart, fell my force and its not pretty. I like this stranger, and I like you, oh more fool you!

You like me? That is a great honor my friend, and luckily for you I find you amusing.also salutations Viddax, my bloody corpse ssid to you.

(Ha, honour me this my undead friend!) Think little of it, you had my attention quickly in the game. And I do hope I'm amusing, amusing Lords and mad kings are such interesting characters.

To bad I am neither, For I am the MasqueradePrince which I do belive trumps the Mad King of this twisted realm.

Im glad you liked it Johnny, I only see that I need periods at the end of each line,are there any other things I need to fix?
16th May 2011 1:15am
Not sure. I'll re-write it with the punctuation I feel it needs then E-Mail it to you. What's your E-Mail?
