Sabria’s Poetry Corner—Not Me But Her

Written by Sabria Mitchell, The Eagle Poet-in-Residence

 

She has everything I don’t

Everything you’re looking for

She has confidence and grace

A nice smile and so much more

You think that no one’s perfect

Until you cross her path

Her long hair flows like water

While she flutters every lash

I can’t help that I’m angry

There’s not one flaw I see

I hate her ‘cause she’s great

And that he’ll take her over me

I swear she is a model

On top of that, she’s smart

And just to add on to the pro’s

She has a caring heart

He stares at her with interest

Like none else is there

He cares for her much more than me

They’d be a perfect pair

It’s hard for me to say this

It’s me that it will taunt

Its time to just admit the truth

Not me, but her he wants

    I went to a prom with someone like that and was bored to tears. The person who fascinated me looked probably didn’t look all that special to the rest of the world. It’s not a matter of checking off the boxes so don’t obsess about the competition.
