Review on What Was I Thinking?
Hannah's simple poem that consists of three simple lines contains a powerful message that not everyone is who you think they are. She writes, "In my eyes/you were perfection/I must have been blind." The narrator once saw a person who she thought was perfect but when she finally gets over that person, she sees the true side of them and says that she must have been blind not to see the bad side of that person.
I can sympathize with Hannah because I understand the feeling of thinking someone was perfect and wonderful and then finding out that she wasn't so perfect after all. Whether this poem was written about love or friendship, the poem carries a universal feeling of not judging a book by its cover.
