See What Is Not Mine

Losing something you don't have

Looks like don't shouldn't be there right?

Well then how come it feels like

What I don't have is going out of sight?



Maybe I should try something new

And leave this room of mirrors

But I don't wanna

Thats why I've been at it for nealy four years



This poem isn't for your entertainment

Nor is it for mine

It's a way to pass time

Until I can see what is not mine



I want it so bad

But it's something I can't have

I really want it back

It's something I must have



The longer I don't have it

I loose more of myself

I feel like I'm falling apart

My line of books is knocked off the shelf



I'm a computer without internet,

A t.v without a remote

It still works I guess

But standing to change the channels a joke

Author's Notes/Comments: 

  It sucks really bad.  Don't lie to me...I made it this way.  (if you read the last 4 lines)I guess I'm just gonna be a joke and try harder.

this probably isn't what you wanna hear but "you can't always get what you want" (come on sing it cause now it's stuck in my head and it should be in yours too)... well basicaly what i'm saying is it's not the end of the world and beating yourself up over it just makes it suck a whole bunch so take what you have and be happy or don't look at what you can't have

its not the worst poem nor is it the best ...its a good idea for a poem topic though...it could be a little better exicuted but ...i dont think thats a issue for you
