Dear friend,am I not good enough for you?
I ask this question repeatedly every time you leave for another like a stranded tourist with no maps or direction
When you make the lamest or say the silliest jokes,I still laugh at them to make you feel gay. Am I not good enough?
When no matter what trouble you are in or what pit you're stuck in,I would go beyond just to see your smile. Am I not good enough?
When you made me feel an idiot,I still stayed. Am I not good enough?
When your other pals came around and you kick me out,I still give a bright smile the next time we meet.
Am I not good enough?
Dear friend,when you were like a burning house and your so called "pals"were nowhere to be found, I came in clad in a fire fighter suit with my water hose ready to quench your fire.
Am I not good enough?
When you left with your trending friends hanging on arms for fun activities without me,I still stayed.
Am I not good enough?
When you made me question my beauty,my intelligence,my effort and everything about myself.
Am I not good enough?
When I would lay in bed by night,reflecting on my day and end up crying myself to sleep.
When the pain I felt was just like me swallowing a fire ball but not making a sound.
Dear friend,when you made me feel like a weed in a beautiful garden.
When I reached out my hand for your help and it was left hanging
When I crumbled before your your feet, hoping to see that love you used to have in eyes for me but,it just wasn't there anymore replaced with this hollow hearted being;who I used to call a friend.
When I wanted support all I asked for was a friend not two or three friends just a friend. Was that too much to ask?
The world wondered why I endured this ill treatment from you and I gave one answer and it was because I cared about you. Before your vile attitude but as time went on this"love" started to withered slowly like a dying flower,in spite of these I kept on holding on,hoping for a change but,that day never came.
And now,I don't care cause I know who I am,what I am worth and what I want.
I don't care about your perspective of my existence cause I have armoured up,I am a warrior and if I fall I'll only get up stronger.
So,when asked myself again,was i and still Am I good enough? my answer was,yes I was and still am.
Maybe dear friend,you weren't just good enough for me.
