''Good enough''

There's a point in life where you lose yourself.
You lose who you are, and how you got here.
who and what you live for.
why you're even still standing.
you forget what happy moments are dragged on memories from the past.
all of the once precious photographs fade away day by day.
then i think of you.
you pushed me and pushed me to be someone, someone i never dreamed of being,
someone i never thought i could be,
someone i hated.someone who wasnt me.
you glare at me, like you see more, you see right through the tears sparkling down my cheeks,
you see through the glasses i carry,as i look down passing you on, day in day out.
you see through the fake smile i'll make as you're walking my way,
you see past the scars jaggered all over my arms,
you see past all the lies, you hear, as the year is coming to a close.
and there i am, standing truely there,
and you're the only one that can see it.
I'm falling,
i"m losing myself
I;ve lost who i am, i'm all caught up in who you want me to be,
a million days of sun couldnt invade my millions of dark.
every moment by your side,proves to me a little more i will never be "good enough",
i will never be good enough, nor for a second would i want to be,
i'm not gonna be who you want me to be,
i'm an image.
Just myself.
I will not partake in faking an image of who i am not;
i will not set out to be who you wish i was.
i am only capable of being who i am,and letting each day show who i am more and more,
i'm not the most intelligent person you'll meet, nor am i the most stupid.however, my eyes will tell you a story,
of a lonely girl,not knowing where she belongs,
endangered in a life of hate and love.
a life of rejection,and lies.
of hurt and pain, but happiness and cheerful times.
you are the only person who truely sees the pain, the hurt, the anxiousness for each day to end.
you are the only one who could save me; the only one that did save me from this life,
the one who made me feel important,and jsut, when everything was broken apart, and diseased like.
i will only ever be who god made me,its impossible for anyone to change who i really am inside,
thanks to you i realized that the beauty you see amongst my body is what makes me "good enough"
whether its just to myself, or to someone else's liking too.
I will be who i need to be.
i will fight for what i want,and concur what i feel is right, i will stand up for what i believe in, and at times i will fall,
but then ill build up more and more strong each time.
you've made me who i am, and i wouldnt change that for the world.

| Wow. Strange how being with one who tries to make us someone else really teaches us who we truly are and what we really need. Powerful. I enjoyed this very much and I related to it completely. Great write. |
