Enough with Not Enough
What would I change?
What would, ahem, I change?
Gee, I dunno.
I think…
I’d change…
the voice inside of a teenage girl’s head
you’re not smart enough
you’re not nice enough
you’re not popular enough
you’re not pretty enough
you’re not pretty enough
I want to exterminate
annihilate
obliterate
every thought that creeps and sneaks
every thought that drives her mad
that drives girls like me mad.
No one deserves the pain,
no one deserves the misery of not enough.
If I could change every sick thought,
every sad thought,
I would.
If I could hand every girl a golden mirror to see all the good,
I would.
Enough with not enough.
You are enough.
I am enough.
We are more than enough.
