to gather the words of beauty and pain you've caused this
foolish little ***** cuddled beneath my chest..
Silly of me to be silly for you...
only to leave
leave and find comfort in another
while I was at our home, longing for your affection
thinking of ways to bring the flame back to our connection...
Naïve of me,
but the nerve of you...
You went outside of us
to find you
I bet you're still lost
...but you're human, so maybe you needed that
& I needed for your love to never become selfish
Tell me,
tell me in its entirety why I wasn't enough
Was I not gentle enough with your soul?
Or maybe,
Just maybe I could've stared deeper into your eyes when we made sweet love?
I guess I could've screamed your name louder when you made me squirt passion?
Was 27 hours across this country to get to you not enough dedication?
Was leaving everything and everyone at the drop of your heartbeat not enough sacrifice?
I don't have enough fingers to count the countless times I forgave you...
Love was in the way, so I went out my way countless times to put a smile on your face
It wasn't enough
I wasn't enough
In your eyes, we weren't perfect enough
I did everything that wasn't enough
She was enough
...I wasn't enough of her
