I AM

I am a tear glittering in the warm sun,

mistaken for a laugh.

I am a chair with three legs,

mistaken for four.

I am a cat sleeping in the sun,

mistaken for happiness.

I am a raging water fall,

mistaken for a trickling stream.

I am a smile in the dark of night,

mistaken for a quiet sleep.

I am a child looking for a lost doll,

mistaken for a child playing.

I am a quiet watcher, true thoughts silenced,

mistaken for a talker.

I am what I am.

It?s all inside, hidden from the world.

Looks, after all, can be deceiving

Are you trying to say that people are misled by appearances and don't see the real you on the inside? That is what I gathered. It is from your soul and it is beautiful.

I am a silent watcher, whose true thoughts can not be spoken,

mistaken for an open and outspoken girl.




This line is too long. It hurts the rythm somewhat.

Other than that i love it, very, very good poem.

I noticed that, and I've been trying to think of a way to fix it. I haven't had much luck of yet though.

emotion is one of the main reasons I write. It's mainly a way of expressing for me.

Here's what I would write. (And you can take it or leave it, I think your poem is beautiful how it is.)

"I am a quiet watcher, true thoughts silenced,
maistaken for a talker."

I must say, usually the repeat layout of a poem can get very redundant. But this poem is not. I like it.
