poem #3

mirror

 how can one succeed
 when you look in the mirror
 and like not what you see?
 is there no rest
 for those who run after
 that which is less?
 if i could remove
 the part that does lack
 what would become
 of a heart that turned black?
 and is there a way
 to turn back the clock
 and somehow regain
 that which is lost?
