I am not a poet. The stringing of words into images into thoughts is not my forte. But you can't blame a girl for trying....
I used to think I was nice,
but then I met nice people.
I used to think I was pretty,
but then I met pretty people.
I used to think I was smart,
but then I met smart people.
I used to think I was,
but then I wasn't.
While poetry isn't my personal strength, either, I can see its advantages. I'm sure you could have written paragraphs (if not pages)about the feelings that inspired your poem, but you managed to get that feeling across in just a few lines. Well done!
