Am I Good Enough Then?

by jennychase

If I put makeup on everyday
make my eyes look alive 
Am I good enough then
 
What if I shrink my shirts and pants 
Ten sizes too small
Am I good enough then?
 
What if I shrink my waist instead
To the point I can count my bones
Am i good enough then?
 
What If I let u be with anyone you want
If u pick me to be ur main girl
Am I good enough then?
 
If it's space you need in order to stay
If I spend days weeks away from you
Am I good enough then?
 
If it's love that you don't want
If I never show it again
Am I good enough then? 
 
If you want the earth forever on my back 
If I got that for you
Am I good enough then
 
What would it take 
To make you want me again
I'd do anything and everything possible
Would I be good enough then?

<p>Ouch, but I know this feeling so well. I want to tell you that hes not worth it. Only because non of the above is healthy and I would hate to watch you do the same things ive done to be accepted that only hurt more in the end. However again, I understand and do not blame you at all for being will ing to give anything for love. xoxo</p>
