Not Enough

Poetry

A rhyming poem I wrote in my creative writing class that I thought I'd share. The poem mainly focuses on what thoughts go through my head on a daily basis.

Not Enough

The first thoughts that enter my mind when I wake up

Say that I'm not enough.

When I see you smile, my heart rate jumps up

I remind myself that I'm not enough.

That I don't deserve what I have

And that those around me can do better.

I think that I can compare to them but I'm not even worth half.

Even on the happiest of days with the best weather,

I'm still not enough.

There comes a time where I must face reality

That my friends may have had enough.

I know that someday they will leave me,

And it will hurt.

But I believe,

One day I'll be enough and leave my doubts in the dirt.
