Enough
To never be good enough
is to be a sponge submerged
and a balloon squeezed,
nowhere for the air inside to go.
To never be good enough
is to feel your eyebrows being plucked
and canines ripping through
your gums.
To never be good enough
is to be a pencil that never sharpens
and a jar that doesn't quite fill up
with the right amount of marbles.
To never be good enough
Is to be a mushroom picked out, discarded
And the shoes
Never worn again after the first time.
