Never Enough


One step into the mirror, You see a girl you hate to be. Never talking to anyone, always filled with doubt. My mouth is sealed shut but my heart remains untouched. My mind is a beautiful canvas and my thoughts are the brush. As I paint a picture i realized, there needs to be a change. This lost girl looking back at me, waiting for the next move, decided to take life by the jaws. She tore her sealed mouth opened and out flew beautiful buterflies. Her eyes gleamed and shinned as she stepped into the light. All she did was see that not everyone wasn't as bright. For the first time in years, she took a risk. Said hello to a stranger and she never lead her a miss. Happy to have a changing mind, finally making friends. This lost girl has been found, all it took was a though...it's never enough.
