Hating you felt wrong.

Loving you never worked.

Knowing you should have helped.

But it didn’t.

So now I’m f—– up.

F—– up by you.

Because you brought me up, and you shot me down

Just like a wild ride.

But then you had enough,

You pitched me off the ride,

All because you had enough.

So now I fall.

I’m falling to my doom, the death of my soul.

Because you dropped me, purposely, killed me.

Murdered me by letting me fall, for without

You I am nothing.

When you found me,

I was lost.

A blank piece of paper, for you to write your demands.

Demands, commands and rules.

I followed every one.

You directed me to my savior,

My savior

Was you.

You saved me from the pit of defeat,

But then you put me back,

Saying I wasn’t good enough.

I wasn’t pretty enough.

I just wasn’t enough.

Enough

Enough

Enough I cry.

I cry because you’re gone.

You’re gone because I wasn’t enough.

Enough.

What a terrible word.

Enough.

When is love ever enough?
