Never Enough

Never enough

I was never enough for you

You needed something more

And I couldn't give that to you

If you lied when you kissed me

Why would you tell the truth now?

Now that I wasn't enough

And you needed her.

What did she give you that I couldn't?

What in her face that's not in mine?

What am I so lacking in

That you had to lie?

If the one person who made me feel like everything

As thrown me away like nothing

Then who do I believe?

Who do I turn to?

We made the constellations!

We stole the stars from the sky

Your green eyes were glistening

Like the evergreens we were under.

You told me that you loved me

You were the hero in the books

The books you used to read to me

That smile, that voice, that look. 

You were the good guy,

You were the guy I found solace under

You were the gentleman

You never hurt me!
You promised never to hurt me!

What, how long was it?

Seven months?
That's how long it took you to walk away. 

Because I was never enough. 

I was never good enough for you.

Nothing ever will be. 

And if I'm never enough, good,

I don't want to be something to someone like you

But if I'm not enough to the least of all

Why would I be anything to the most?

Never enough. 

I was never enough. 

I was never enough for you.
