Things Are Not What They Seem

sometimes we are not as good as we think,
sometimes we need others to show us this.
sometimes life isn't what we think it is.
I know I have found this out the hard way now.

Think I am all done with this stuff.. 
I'm not what I thought I was.

Hey Cory thank you for your comment, I like to say that your poem is very good also, anyway I will be on a radio station in the the New England area on Sunday and it's free air time to plug my second book Food for thought poetry by art, it is in the poetry soup bookstore on page #7, so you see with God anything is possible, so keep the pen flowing and with His help you;ll get to where you want to be. God bless
