When I Think I Am... Poem by I am not A POET

When I Think I Am...

Rating: 4.8


When I think I am happy,
I know that I am not happy.

When I think I am sad,
I know that I am not sad,

When I think I am strong,
I know that I am not strong,

When I think I am weak,
I know that I am not weak,

When I think I am good,
I know I am not good,

When I think I am bad,
I know that I am not bad,

When I think I am rich,
I know that I am not rich,

When I think I am poor,
I know that I am poor,

When I think I am a human,
I know that I am a human,

Of course with blood & flesh.

if you have to think about it then you are trying to hard to get it. all these things should flow naturally to you and through you like poetry.

As a part of our station in life we are blessed with a certainty above all else. That certainty is that each and every one of us is a valid point of view. No point of view is more valid than another. There are only different angles or fields of perceptics perhaps.... But each is valid. With that in mind, my point of view says you have written a very fine poem that can stir some conversation. I happen to like that. Thanks for the invite......Jim Troy
