I look like this,
And it's never enough.

I act like this,
And it's never enough.

I talk like this,
And it's never enough.

I bend, contorts, reshape, myself,
And it's never enough.

I don't know what to do,
Where I'm meant to be,
How I'm meant to fit in.
Or how I'm meant to feel safe with you.

You say you I'm gorgeous,
But your eye wanders,
You say I'm special,
But seek the attention from others,
You say I am so lovable,
But yet you can't commit to me.

I feel lost.
Confused,
Insecure,
Defeated,
Insufficient in your company.

I live on my nerves edge,
Never feeling confident,
Always catering to your needs,
Always trying to present perfectly,
Always persuading you to stay with me.

But this is stupid.
Let's take a step back,
Time to look at things objectively...
If you look at you,
Then you look at me,
Why am I pandering to your needs?

I'm gorgeous,
And smart,
Also kind, loving and considerate.
I buy the best presents,
And I give the best hugs,
I champion you in your lowest moments,
And hold space for you when you are afraid.

That's right,
I'm a great ******* catch,
And well above your score,
Anyone would be grateful to have me,
But yet you treat me as if you want more.

Who the **** do you think you are?
And how am I not enough for you?
Stop pushing me aside with your insecurities,
Stop getting in my head with your criticisms,
Stop torturing me with your contradictions.

You are not better than me,
You don't get to call the shots,
You don't get to hold all the cards,
You don't get to decide if I'm enough for you,
I am a total package, and you don't deserve me.

I look within,
Find my worth,
Get my courage,
Claim what is mine,
And leave your sorry *** behind.

I stand by my personal power,
And I am enough.

I communicate my needs, wants and desires,
And I am enough.

I hold my ground on my values,
And I am enough.

I present imperfectly in my authenticity,
And I am always enough.
