"You're not good enough.

You're not good enough.",

I tell myself and hold the glass

Against my cheek, 

Until I bleed,

Two tears from far below.


I built my life

High in the skies

My throne is made of clouds

Yet grey they are

Anger they hold

And rain they bring about.


I survived so much,

Unfortunate love,

Twice or thrice

What difference does it make?

If my heart shakes

From one mistake.


Pain is behind me,

Yet pain is still there.

Nightmares they haunt me,

To sleep, I don't dare.

Oh, silly girl, came all this way

Just to fall from throne again.


One mindful comment,

One small critique,

And everything will fall apart,

"Hilarious!",

I scold myself,

"You just don't work enough."


"Oh, dearie, darling, who would care?

That in life you had it rough

Who did not?

And did you know?

Others make it,

But you keep dancing out of row."


"You left your home,

You burdened her,

And now you just complain.

You were so bright

You laughed a lot

Now all you bring is shame."


"Go on, pretend,

Tell yourself it is alright

To not have a single friend

And simply watch, 

While others blend

Darling, you're burning bright."


"Why the fire? 

What's the rage?

It's your own fault. You are to blame

For nothing more, but that you shame

Your own self

In your own name."
