Enough
Enough
You are gentle just like this burning sun,
And are polite as the violent rain;
You always drain my life of possible fun,
And always triumph, making me insane.
I can no longer slumber through this night,
For a great fear, and with a constant fret;
Trying to make you proud takes all my might,
Even though expectations are not met.
But now I know no true satisfaction,
In what I accomplish thus far in life,
Giving myself no gratification;
I make it my constant conflict; my strife.
And yet I know I will never be free,
Owing to the fact that critic is me.
