Never Good Enough

some people just cannot be pleased, no matter how hard you try

I want to be your everything and strongest craving
A constant thought flowing through your mind
To know that when you search for your inner peace
It is my tender and strong love that you find

My desire is to give you all that I have inside of me
To be the fulfillment of your every want and need
I want for you to be happy and to have all you long for
But I cannot be as my shattered heart rapidly bleeds

The naked truth is there staring me in the face
I will never be good enough for you
No matter how eloquently I may speak
Or the actions that I put myself through

In the silence of the dark and dismal room
I weep my hearts lonely and broken song
But you will not see the scalding falling tears
And will never know there is something wrong

I can feel your emotion in the writing and what seems to be frustration of unfufulled desire

This is a complete story of a relationship, unsetteling, disturbing,
but realistic.
This write flows beautifully. It seems effortless and without
breaking. Your poem is the smoothest writing I have seen in ages.

I can`t tell exactly what is happening. It sounds to me as though
the ex-lover may be deceased. You feel the person you are talking
to should be favored by you, but you cannot get through the cold
agony of your lost love.

You may not even mean for the theme of this story to be understood,
it is between the characters involved.

The writing is flawless, beautiful and brilliant.

More please.

Holly bat man, a strong poem, but do we have to be that strong. They say a poet never lies. The jay man from Canada

Another great write. And, I know...I am commenting on all of your work, but I just enjoy it that much. I like the way this one starts out, by expressing the emotions we all desire within love....and then it closes with the silent crash of a lonely soul that hangs in the shadow. This is a wonderful body of work, as is everything else I have read. Thank you once again for sharing.
