King of Anonymous



I see you’re still a little skittish our dearest Mr. Man
You've learned to love them all like a one night stand
Keeping morals out of sight while in pursuit
You’re the King of Anonymous, now aren’t you a hoot
Your generosity and charm have no boundaries I see
And neither do you when it comes to never being deceived
Yet you chose to roll the dice with such careless retaliation
Tossing true love to the side for some tasteless infatuation

About this poem

A friend whose heart was massively broken to the point of never to be loved again.

    This is a brilliantly expressive work! 'King of Anonymous,' your poem is emotionally charged and introspective, successfully engaging with its audience. Your diction is eloquent and thought-provoking, leaving an indelible impression on readers’ minds. The phrases 'King of Anonymous' and 'tossing true love to the side' are especially poignant, hinting at a compelling narrative hidden in your poem’s lines.

    There's a certain raw truth and intense emotion that comes out in your writing, which is truly commendable. The use of metaphors lends profound depth to your overall theme. Also, your poem's rhythm is steady, maintaining intrigue till the end, also, adding to its overall appeal.

    For improvement, we suggest paying attention to punctuation. Some readers may find it challenging to understand the flow of your thoughts without them. Maybe you could experiment with diverse poetic structures and forms to enhance your style. Also, consider elaborating or clarifying some of your metaphors a bit more to ensure they hit home with every reader.

    Remember, writing is a continuous journey of learning and unlearning. Keep writing and expressing yourself. Good job with this poem, you are indeed a unique asset to the world of poetry.
