I thought the world was flat,
But now I know it's round,
I thought all love was lost,
But now I know it's found,
I thought my parents knew everything,
But now I know they don't,
I thought my friends would leave me,
But now I know they won't,
I thought the sky was purple,
But now I know it's blue,
I thought I didn't know,
But now I know I knew,
I thought all leaves were green,
But now I know they're not,
I thought I didn't know anything,
But now I know I knew a lot,
I thought I wouldn't pass,
But now I know I might,
I thought this poem would stop here,
And now I know I'm right.

I wrote this in the 6th grade, I got a 98.

Awww, this is nice. I think we all find hidden knowledge within ourselves- usually after we needed it! Cute ending, too!

That's what we, as heroes, do. We live as if the world were like it should be, to show the world what it could be.
