Dear Mother, I'm sorry I'm not enough I'm sorry I'm not smart enough Not pretty enough Not talented enough I'm sorry I'm not graceful I'm sorry I'm sensitive I'm sorry I'm not The daughter you wanted Dear Father, I'm sorry I'm not enough I'm sorry I'm not a boy Not a basketball star Not top of the class Not strong enough I'm sorry I'm not perfect I'm sorry I'm not a genius I'm sorry I'm not The child you wanted Dear Sister, I'm sorry I'm sad sometimes I'm sorry I'm not the ideal big sister Not very pretty Not silly enough Not open enough I'm sorry you got stuck with me I'm sorry I'm not perfect I'm sorry I'm not The sister you wanted Dear Neighbor, I'm sorry I'm annoying I'm sorry I'm not social enough Not doing what you're doing Not easily excited Not happy enough I'm sorry I'm the only one your age I'm sorry I'm not athletic enough I'm sorry I'm not The neighbor you wanted Dear Family, You don't care But I'm sorry I'm not enough Dear Friends, You don't exist But I'm sorry I will never be enough Dear world, I'm sorry I wasn't enough So I'm leaving Goodbye

Not Enough
Dear Mother, I'm sorry I'm not enough I'm sorry I'm not smart enough Not pretty enough Not talented enough I'm sorry I'm not graceful I'm sorry I'm sensitive I'm sorry I'm not The daughter you wanted Dear Father, I'm sorry I'm not enough I'm sorry I'm not a boy Not a basketball star Not top of the class Not strong enough I'm sorry I'm not perfect I'm sorry I'm not a genius I'm sorry I'm not The child you wanted Dear Sister, I'm sorry I'm sad sometimes I'm sorry I'm not the ideal big sister Not very pretty Not silly enough Not open enough I'm sorry you got stuck with me I'm sorry I'm not perfect I'm sorry I'm not The sister you wanted Dear Neighbor, I'm sorry I'm annoying I'm sorry I'm not social enough Not doing what you're doing Not easily excited Not happy enough I'm sorry I'm the only one your age I'm sorry I'm not athletic enough I'm sorry I'm not The neighbor you wanted Dear Family, You don't care But I'm sorry I'm not enough Dear Friends, You don't exist But I'm sorry I will never be enough Dear world, I'm sorry I wasn't enough So I'm leaving Goodbye
Not committing suicide, it's just on my mind at the moment I'm sorry for real though... I wish I didn't exist so people could just live their lives and not have to deal with me. I know I'm not worth it. I know I'm not enough
