First the worst.
Second the best.
But second place has never felt great.

I can't be good at everything.
But I want to be good at something.

Every time I try I fall short.

Short of expectation.
Short of exception.

All I want is for my best to be good enough.
Not all the time.
Just once.

I just need one time.
One time when someone looks at me and says yes.
That's it.
She's perfect.

Good enough for a job.
Good enough for a person.
Good enough for a family.
Good enough for a religion.

I don't feel bad.
I just feel not good.
Not good enough.
