    These are all literary terms. You may have written down from listening; you have some spelling errors. Poem. hyperbole, Wordsworth, ballads. I suggest you search the terms in Google. It would be good to see them in context. Most literature books for high school students have a glossary in the back of the book with examples of the literary terms. The Lyrical Ballads is a collection of poems and there are many different types of literary devices used in the work. The book was published in 1798 and the language has changed a lot since then so it is going to be challenging to an English learner. Here's a link to one of the online etexts of the book: http://etext.virginia.edu/etcbin/toccer-new2?id=Wor2Lyr.sgm&images=images/modeng&data=/texts/english/modeng/parsed&tag=public&part=all

    While it is difficult to say what someone else means by a statement like this that can be taken in a number of different ways, it's very similar to another expression: "If something seems to good to be true, it probably is." In that case, the meaning is that if something is such a good deal that it seems unbelievable, it probably is not true. Here, the meaning is similar: There must be some hidden problem with a boyfriend that seems so perfect. There is a problem that we can't see.
