Enough
Sometimes I feel
As though
I am not
Good enough.
Smart enough.
Pretty enough.
Thick enough.
Just...
Enough.
To hold your interest.
Day in
And day out.
I am in constant battle
With my own emotions
A raging war
Between my heart
And my mind.
It seems as though
My mind
Is winning
My subconscious mind
Is feeding
My conscious mind
Bad thoughts.
Heartbreaking thoughts.
Causing it to lose hope.
I will not lie.
Abandonment
Has been on my mind
These past few days.
How do you forget
About someone
You love?
Someone
You care about?
Has someone else
Caught your eye?
Stolen your heart?
Are they
Receiving all
Of your attention?
If so,
I will not
Be surprised.
I am so young.
So inexperienced.
So innocent.
And you,
My love,
Are the exact opposite.
Maybe your curiosity
Has gotten the best
Of you.
You yearn for that
Which I can not give
Will not give.
Until the time is right.
