Description
A picture paints a thousand wordsYet remains but a symbol
An image is but a suit of armour
A shiny, prickly thimble
We build it up and give it breath
And let it speak out for us
A projection of our deepest fears
As we drown them out with chorus
We cower behind this flimsy demon
And must walk in its shadow
This structure we maintain with fervour
Is but a ripple in the shallows
We build it right, and maintain it so
And make sure it is mended
The irony is that in the end
No one sees it quite as we intended

Very good! Now, I have no critique because I'm not the best writer, but this is very creative.

perfect beat and rythm. most of your second lines have 7 syllables so the flow is quite natural and lovely.
not to mention the overall meaning is quite insightful and true.
