This is Irony

I try to be a person,
A man in a world of man,
And when that fails,
I try to be myself,
How Ironical,
That people misunderstand,
They interpret my true being,
For something totally else,

When people see me for who I’m not,
It makes me feel like I’m Not.

nice piece...

not too sure about the last line. that second 'not'

seems like your piece will be well understood by most folk.
