Poetry In Emotion [Completed]

What people think

I care too much about what people think
It doesn't help in any way
It doesn't make me feel better
But I do it, anyway

People think my poems are not bad
But I think that people think they're not great
People think I'm okay
But I know I'm not at my greatest rate

People think the chair is blue
When I know, for certain, that it's a different hue
I don't know what to do about it
Not even a bit

I don't know what to do about what I think people think
Bit I'd rather not be on an ice skating rink
Afraid I'll fall, since I don't know how to skate
And that would, me, frustrate

I don't want to be this way my whole life
I don't want to be this way when I'm someone's wife
So, I'll try my hardest to stop thinking that people think
That way, no need to be like I'm on an ice skating rink
