"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."
