Richard Cory

Richard Cory seemed like such a happy person, but only on the outside. Nobody knows what's going on inside your mind unless you tell them. He for sure kept his thoughts and feeling to himself and portrayed himself to be a content person. Sometimes people hide their feeling in order to not be judged. Richard Cory must've been going through a really tough time, but didn't want people to feel sorry for him. The author of this poem wrote it because he wants to have the chance to relate to others. He wants to spread a message to people going through a hard time that they aren't alone. Never judge a person because you never know what they're going through.
