Good Enough


I'm not good enough

 

Each and everytime I say that

Everyone disagrees.

Everyone thinks I genuinely am good enough.

 

Except me.

I really do not think I am worth anyones 

words

time

tears

life

 

All I would want is to escape this body

I wish I could get out of this mind

This mind is now my home

But I don't feel safe

 

I'm scared

I need someone

anyone.

 

I just want someone to hug me

and make me feel like it might be okay

even though if you tell me it will,

my mind will say the opposite 

 

no one can hear me

my cries

my heart

my pain

my screams

 

i need help.

please someone help me.

i need someone 

i dont know what to do 

in this cruel world

 

i have no place here

my feelings are all gone

i cant feel anymore

 

i wish i could escape like my feelings

and i know this poem is all over the place

but now im just looking for attention

and not the attention to get more likes on a photo

or more friends to sympathize you

the attention where someone sees i am in pain

 

i just want someone to hug me and tell me everything will be okay

and that someone actually cares about me

because im running out of hope

please someone help me. 

someone hear me

please.
