Aysha Nuwas Poet Free verse

The Halls of Deception

In shadows deep, they weave their cunning guise
With silver words and false, beguiling eyes
Their smiles, a mask, concealing hidden schemes
Deceptive hearts, where selfish ego secrets scream

A puppeteer of trust and empathy
Beware the charm that hides a wicked plan
For in their web, they will steal your soul

Let wisdom's light can pierce deceit's dark veil
Expose the lies, and truth at last shall prevail

Shine the light, on the darkness of silent beasts

Paula Goldsmith October 6, 2023 at 1:10 PM A powerful write with a great ending. Deception is everywhere. One can only have truth with truthful people. Everyone had rather lie. So Sad...  Have a wonderful/blessed~~day/weekend.................... Aysha Nuwas January 20, 2024 at 1:05 AM I can not believe how many comments I missed, I feel so bad replying so late, thank you very much.

Arlo Parker September 21, 2023 at 11:17 PM Quite topical on Soup. Deceptive poets can ravage a poetry community quickly. Stand firm for site integrity. :o) Aysha Nuwas September 29, 2023 at 11:10 PM Thank you very much.

Bill Baker September 18, 2023 at 5:03 PM Powerful and insightful poetry, Aysha. I'll be following your poetry. Bill Aysha Nuwas September 29, 2023 at 11:08 PM You are very kind Bill, I hope you are doing well.

I Am Anaya September 18, 2023 at 8:32 AM "Shine the light, on the darkness of silent beasts" Aysha , your poetry expresses that which needs to be heard from the demeaners. One doesn't believe until they personally have the mean-spirited come at them. I wish you well and safe from poisoned pens! ~Anaya Aysha Nuwas September 29, 2023 at 11:08 PM Thank you Anaya L)

Silent One September 17, 2023 at 4:45 AM The world is full of narcissists and so called puppet masters... in a patriarchal world sadly the female is targeted too much.. great poem Aysha Nuwas September 29, 2023 at 11:07 PM Very kind of you, and yes I agree.

Ink Empress September 17, 2023 at 1:42 AM I know so many puppeteers of truth and empathy, they preach what they refuse to practice and yes, eventually truth comes out, no evil stays hidden for too long. Beware of rosy lips and smiles, theres thorns and thistles beneath them, not every sweet smile wishes you well. Loved reading this. Nice to meet u Aysha Nuwas September 29, 2023 at 11:06 PM Thank you, very wise words, hugs.

Aurore Severo September 16, 2023 at 11:55 PM I can really relate to this poem, loved it. Aysha Nuwas September 20, 2023 at 1:21 PM Is always nice when you know others can relate to your own feelings and emotions.

Victor Buhagiar September 16, 2023 at 11:42 PM A deep poem that exposes the evil that men do. Yet, as you wrote, truth shall prevail and win the ultimate battle. Great muse. Aysha Nuwas September 20, 2023 at 1:21 PM Thank you Victor
