Author's Notes: I wrote a poem about Jekyll and Hyde being the same person. Both resembling humans, that everyone has a good and bad side. No matter how much a person strives to be wholly good, it is impossible because the inner evil will come out sometime.
Hiding behind the masks
Everyone wonders but no one asks
The strange thoughts come and pass
Evil would bring out its own sass
Angels carry the shine to believe
What kind of man could achieve
The unthinkable act of two
Not knowing who is who
One side good and one side evil
Duality painting on a blank easel
Wholly good will never succeed
Due to the devil’s required need
Very nicely done! I especially like the line "everyone wonders but no one asks" as it is oh so true in all aspects and it adds a lot to the passage. Also, your ending hits the nail on the head especially with Jekyll and Hyde. Nice Job!
