Question: New poem!. Tell me what you think!?
ILLUSION
Hours disappear
When conversing
Drawing ever closer
Singled out for attention
Feeling ever special
Familiarized with every move
Every breath
Every step
Yet
Truth has been revealed
Special interest was actually
Ordinary
Common
Regular
Consequently,
Adoration turned to confusion
Yearning twisted into avoidance
The smoke is cleared
The mirrors have been put away
Leaving behind
False ideas
False feelings
MisapprehensionWww@QuestionHome@Com

It has a choppy flow to it, but for some reason, I like it that way!. I like how it is just disconnected words that end up making a poem!. I also like how you didn't hold yourself down with punctuation!. Really good poems don't even need it!.

I really liked the last four lines!. Is "misapprehension" a word!? It probably is, but I was just checking!. I like how you used synonyms in lines 12-14, saying the same thing!. I also like how it seemed like you knew the perfect places to split lines!.

Mine would probably look a lot different, and no one would like it, but written like this, I think it is great!. Overall, I give it a 9!.4/10!.0!. I really enjoyed this poem!

Hope I helped!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I agree with really cool!. Thankfully your repeating of the same like definition, of a few words was one worded, and not elongated, with the same words repeated, like many poems I've read!. I did like that fact!.
I thought the poem lines were some what choppy, or sinuous, but fast pace, delightfully enticing, and fascinating!.
I didn't really get a feel or a like, for the title for the poem,
till I read "smoke and mirrors!." That's when the theme really hit me, and made me re-read, with a clearer perceptive!.
I give this poem an
Attractive 8!.9Www@QuestionHome@Com

confusing, don't quite understand but i think it is saying that we analyse things so closely pointing out good and bad points but the truth is the past is in the past why must we analyse what has already happened when we could analyse what is going to happen!.
basically leave your past behind you!.

it probably means something completely different right!. well thats how i see it

i love the way you've used short sentences that don't carry on, it makes it seem more powerfulWww@QuestionHome@Com

ok yea maybe change the line set up a bit!? see the focus on every individual word makes it hard to see the whole!. if you only focus on a few words, it'll be much mroe powerfulWww@QuestionHome@Com

hmmm!. this poem like focus on each and every word!.!. which makes the reader to focus on every word!! ^^Www@QuestionHome@Com

Really good =) The only thing I suggest is that you break it up into stanzas so it has a more appealing look!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
