Self-Evaluation

It's not enough to know of your worth
Through mother/father lips:

'You special, good looking, cool,
Smart, genius and also mesmerizing,
Have great charisma...

With personality to match 
The best of all historic figures,
Great athlete also...
 
Well deserving someone
Who's rich like Gates or Buffet
Looking like Depp or, at least, Clooney...
With Jesus Christ's significance and morals
And, add to it, Jerry Sienfeld's funny -
All in one person, nonetheless.'

What's life will tell you in advance
Will give you all the warnings, lessons:
'It's not delusional assessments
It's what others 
Thinking of you... 
And if you are in demand
By other and another persons.'
