Nothing's good enough

November 7, 2015

Nothing

Nothing's ever good enough for you

I finally understand

I'll never meet the mark

I see it now

Nothing's ever good enough for you

Not even you

I broke

You broke me

For what I thought would be forever

But never

Did I think I would forget the love I held

Through all the shattered bones

And pain

And sorrow

I loved you

Nothings ever good enough for you

I tried to win your love

But now I see

Winning your love

Isn't good enough for me
