Jenn

I'm not ready
to write about me.
I can't seem to find
the perfect literary
form of myself.

I'm not ready
to really try.

I'm not ready
to find out what's real.

I'm not ready to lose.

I'm not the pretencious fool
with a beautiful mirage.

I'm better off.

I'll win someday.

Go, Jenn, Go.

Jeremy H.

I liked your poem, but somehow you lost me! I am not sure I quite understand it, or the title..but I guess sometimes the best poetry doesn't have to be understood!! Good write, keep up the good work!!

If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.

Haha to your critique message...
I enjoyed this one a lot. I think we writers can all relate to the idea of hesitating to reveal too much of ourselves in our writing. I don't get the Jenn reference but I'm sure it means something to you.
Another thumbs up from me.

Well not my favorite from you but a good one none the less I like the refrences to not being ready to reveal yourself I know that one well. I think I would have understood a bit better if I had known the "Jenn" you talk about but either or it's still a good write!

Don't look to me for perfection, for I will surely let you down.
