Yes, me.


I am not good enough.

I am not

I am not

I am not

I am simply…me.

 

He, she, him, her, they – 

all of whom are more

talented, creative, good – better

than me.

 

That is what I think sometimes

when all I can think of is

my flaws, imperfections

scratches.

nicks.

 

Yet…

My Creator stirs within me

I am still here.

I am present.

And that would not,

Could not be if, unless –

maybe

I am good enough.

 

Yes, me
