About Me

some people think they know everything about me
when they really know nothing
they don't know the things i have seen and done
they don't know the pain and suffering i have been through
no one knows everything about me
but me

Good piece, honest and direct, which is always a good method to make a profound statement. Of course, no one will ever know everything about you. We all need to keep some things to ourselves, no matter how close we may become to someone. That's the beauty of individuality and integrity, and don't let anyone tell you different. Those who tell you they truly know you, or know everything are lying to you, trying to convert their own insecurities into a power struggle, in which they hope to grind you under the proverbial boot heel. Never forget that, and never let them win. Keep writing though, you have a unique voice.

Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
