A Simple Book

A simple book can contain so much on every page.

In this same book, each page hides more by covering

It all up with simple little words.

A simple book can tell your whole life yet leave so

Much out.

Every word brings you more knowledge but at the same

Time, it brings you less.

A simple book could be so realistic yet so fake.

You don't know what it is but you know something

Is hiding deep within this little, simple yet complex

Book with things unheard yet heard.

Nevertheless, you try to understand but a simple book

Could be a complex novel in the deepest parts.

Just be careful with a simple book.

It could still confuse you.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This poem is about my poetry book that I use to keep.  Now the poems are on this site.  One friend said he saw everything when he read my poems.  This poem was to tell everyone how things were still hidden from everyone.
