Potential

Nothing seems as cruel
As unclaimed potential

Certain unspoken ends
Unstarted efforts under scrutiny
Eyes staring unwillingly at an
Uneaten crumb
Unfinished cookie
Undisposed, undigested
Under a waste can

Fidgeting to bring
Painful oxygenated blood
Into uncirculating numbness
Unmoving thighs
Uncertain of the duration
Uncrossed legs can endure

Inarticulate diatribe
Unrelenting in my mouth
Unwelcome observations
About unobtained growth
Incomplete appointment
With underpaid therapist

Unsettled ideas
Arising in uncertain order
Unsure of their purpose
In an unstoppable current
Unsavory emotions
Unsolicited fears
Under utilized brilliance

Uncorked
Uncomplicated
Underachieved
Undone
