Not Good Enough

My childhood tears never dry here,
Even with your hugs.
Your kiss can’t ever heal this wound.
There’s a pain in my chest,
A tear in my heart that festers and burns.
You all whisper your expectations,
Nasty little somethings that contradict my dreams.
Pull me here, twist me there,
Create the antithesis of me.
Trap me here, pin me down,
Just tell me what to do.
The child inside weeps, yet humbly I obey.
Empty hugs do not console, your kiss infects the wound.
Pat my head and then send me out to fail.
You just don’t know who I really am.
You just don’t care who I really am.

A very good first poem to the site. Hope to see more of your work up here. My favorite lines are:
"You all whisper your expectations,
Nasty little somethings that contradict my dreams."
I think we all can relate to that. |
