Best Looks Can Be Deceiving Poems

From a babe to a man, I needed your hand. Now I understand, it was part of God's 
ultimate plan. I was to be raised by another woman.  Don't get me wrong, Grandmomma was something! She gave me all the love a child could...

I saw a tree crying in the rain
A woman hurting with no pain 
The wind blowing but I couldn't 
prove it
The earth spinning but I could 
not move it
The song itself could not sing
The thought it travelled with no 
wings
The words alone could not 
speak 
The gauge...

this boy - 
he is mythology
he is the pomegranate sitting in persephone's 
palm - 
(looks can be deceiving)

this boy - 
he is a mirror
can show medusa what heaven really is - 
how pain really feels 
but medusa never looks 

this boy in the sun -...

Let me start by saying looks can be deceiving
By the person that’s receiving
And transmitting the image to the brain to create a perfect picture
Judging before you look
Failing to see pass the skin deep within
Where her beauty lies therein
You not willing to go on a journey...

I've never seen anything,
so beautiful,
Anyone, anywhere,
so wonderful.
It's taken me a while ,but,
I finally realize,
that,
the beauty that I see,
is the kindness,in your eyes.

Looks may be deceiving
and beauty, evanescent,
but,
The kindness in your eyes,
is,ever present.

Your smile is
mesmerizing,
I'm entranced, by,
your perception
but,
the kindness in your eyes,
is your loves reflection.

Walking down the sea shores 
Gazing at wondrous God’s creation
Amused by the noise made by waves
And enjoying the spit by rolling waves 

I blinked twice for conviction	
I couldn’t believe my eyes
The adage says “looks can be deceiving”
Can the angel be evil?

Your glittering chocolate skin
And dripping...

As you read please enjoy the music of David Garrett, and you ladies may enjoy the photos. 

His looks were so deceiving,
a handsome man with a poison-laced kiss,
a spider weaving a web to capture prey
and I too willing to be consumed.
With enticing smile, sexy voice,...

Silver tounge devil
You master of arts
Making promises of forever
Than ripping out hearts

You're a snake in the grass
Laying ready to strike
Looks can be deceiving
You're as deadly as your bite

Eyes from the Heavens
Body of a God
My life was perfect
Until you came along

A force to be reconed with
Leaving...

I was there not too long ago,
Everything seemed fine.
You looked like a happy, healthy family,
But I guess looks can be deceiving can’t they.
That very night,
You broke my brothers heart.
It’s shattered in pieces,
To never be put back together again.
It’s like humpty dumpty, 
and his wall.
He’s fallen...

The hurt and pain has gone on way to long
Despite my efforts to hold on and stay strong
I find myself losing hope
I'm not quite sure just how to cope
I do what I can't to forget his name 
By playing myself into some risky game
Use medication...

Looking at the view from the window
Watching all the cars pass on buy
The street lamps give a distant glow
Now brienghting the darkened sky

Looking at the view from the outside
A whole completely different perspective
Especially when looking from the inside
Some things seem like their reflected

Looking at a...

I drift off to slumber only to receive a warning.
An alert to impending danger.
The one who is evil and,
Aims to turn your soul black.
Beware of the one with hair of fire and,
The voice of an angel.
Watch out for her piercing black eyes.
Yet, all will hear...

Escaping Illusions


A person can only take so much
Guess you ran out of luck, huh?
What’s next?  What did he do?  What didn’t he do?
You can’t have your cake and eat it too.

How can she treat you like a king?
If you can’t understand what she...

My flower lies within, a sight that few have seen.
Protected and hidden by sharp thorns and leaves of green.
An innocence ripped away at a very early age.
My flower's locked away in a cold and lonely cage.

Pain and loneliness now partnered with a lost child’s soul.
A...
