What Do I Lack?

If anything, there is one thing I lack...

Tell me

What does she have

That I don’t?

What do I lack?

Beauty?

I can fix that

Straighten my hair

Wear nicer clothes

And get a tan

Just give me time

Smarts?

I can fix that

I’ll write you hundreds of poems

Quote you beautiful Shakespeare

And compare you to the prettiest things

Just give me time

Personality?

I can fix that

I’ll lose the temper

Control my jealousy

And find a sense of humor

Just give me time

I promise with time

I can change for you

Be better than her

So I can finally get what I desire

The one thing she has

That I don’t

Your heart

Author's Note

This is more of an emotional outpouring again. Sorry if the quality isn't up to par with the rest of my writings.

Good try..!!!

It is more jolted than your usual writing, but it is by no means worse. In many ways, it is just as good. All you'd have to do is divide it into stanzas and it would be just as good.
