Missed

What I miss?
Must of fell asleep this time.  
What did I miss this time?  
I don't know what I must find.  
Feels like I'm falling behind.

Can't live my life like this.
Letting my true colors show.  
Thought I'd just let it flow.  
What hurt me most was what I didn't know.
Someone please let me know.
Before it's too late.
Where do I go
When I can't see straight?

I just wished that there wasn't something I missed.
When was it everyone was told this?
Didn't even know this knowledge to exist.
But what I didn't know is what hurt me the most.
What was it I missed?

I agree that it didn't flow very well, but you did very well get those emotions out! Pretty good!

Not all poems need to flow or rhym. I thought this was very good. I especially like the line "What hurt me most was what I didn't know." Well done!

It seemed choppy to me, or yes, it didn't flow. Try connecting a few of the sentences. Overall, though, the thoughts were good.

I agree with the others that it didn't flow very well, but the emotions were definitely there.  Keep writing!

Petey~
Definitely a very emotional and heartfelt write.
You've done a great job of expressing these emotions.
Nicely done.
