But For Now

Sometimes I feel like a piece of paper 
With writing.
But people only look at the obvious words
And say they know me.
I'm more than just the obvious words, I'm
A story.
Maybe someone will read me eventually,
But for now,
I'm just a piece of paper.

This was very cool. I really like the message in these words because they are very relatable. Your poem is concise but does tell an entire story. Very nice.
