    Painted

    You want to paint a pretty picture
    For all the world to see
    To live in a world you've created
    By your mindless dreams
    But in your sleep you've forgotten
    The truth behind your eyes
    The darker part of all those secrets
    Kindled by your lies

    It's too late you've made mistakes
    I know you all too well
    What you are is a fake
    A fake boiling spells
    You dip the brush to get a rush
    And fade all the proof
    You paint obscure as that's your cure
    Attempt to hide the truth

    You want to paint a pretty picture
    For all the world to see
    Then you could be as you want
    Hidden in your dreams
    But in your sleep you've forgotten
    What's really behind your eyes
    The paint you use is short of pure
    It's tainted by your lies

    It's too late, you've made mistakes
    I know you all too well
    What you are is a fake
    Your integrity's gone to hell
    You will never be the one
    that could hide from us what's true
    Your words come fast, but we see past
    Picture painted you

    We all know someone of this magnitude. :) Nice poem

    Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
