Poetry -J.W.

Why am I never enough?

Why am I never enough?

I am nothing but a little candle,
A flicker of a flame.
But you wanted a forest fire,
I am nothing but a little candle.

I am only a rain drop,
A gift from the clouds.
But you wanted an ocean,
I am only a rain drop.

I am just but a jar of dirt,
A memory of life.
But you wanted an island,
I am just a jar of dirt.

I am just another human,
Suffering through life.
But you wanted a perfect person.
A perfect friend.
A perfect relative.
A perfect student.
A perfect sibling.
A perfect child.
But I am nothing but another human,
Suffering through a life,
That is no longer theres.
