I've seen this show a thousand times

They don't see what I have seen

They don't see her vicious crimes

She says she's the queen

But they don't see what's behind those manipulative eyes

For all they know behind that curtain, it's clean

They don't see what is hidden behind the curtain: lies

I see everything you don't you just see her simple screen

 

What if I tear that curtain apart

Rip it into pieces 

shall I unveil the truth of her heart

Or perhaps crush her power and ideas

I could in a matter of seconds destroy her fake art

Maybe I shouldn't maybe I should I could gain power and possibly become the new royal misses


The author's comments:

This is a poem about when you see the true side of someone and she acts cruel to you but then acts like she is perfect to everyone else. When you are at this point you have a choice to tell everyone that she is mean or you can let them decide who the person is.
