And sometimes,

she wishes that she'd finally be enough for someone.
But I'm not, and I guess that's the problem... isn't it?

I can never be a great writer
Not to everyone
But to me
I am good enough

They are my words
My thoughts
They can never be anyone else's

My poems are mine to consume
And if I share them with the world
The consequence is that they may not be loved
And that's okay

Because they are not meant for the world
They are meant for me
To assemble my buzzing mind
I have been writing a lot. But only for me. I have to convince myself that my words matter too. Maybe not to you, but to me. I hope someday it matters to me.

I'm insecure, but I'm trying
I'm confident, yet I'm hiding
I promise myself I will change
I will improve and be someone
That I can be proud of , someone
That my parents and my friends
can be proud of
I do my best, and for me
That's enough

You always tell me about my shortcomings
You have endless lists inside of your mind
Full of things that are wrong about mine
I'm never smart enough for you
I'm never kind enough to you
I'm just never enough

When I walk out of your life
Will that finally be enough?

I try to tiptoe across the pain
but you caught my tears hidden by the rain
you try to tell me everything will be okay
But all I hear is that I will always love you

And that you will never feel the same
why can't you just love me. why do you not love me. why cant you just let me love you and let yourself love me. i dont understand. i dont know if i ever will. why do you do this to me. do you want me to hurt? why am I not good enough? why can't you just love me. why cant anyone just ******* love me.
