when you're "not enough" to someone...what can you really do?
wondering if those words were true?
half a lie is not a truth..and "not enough" is all the proof...all the proof that i need..
proof that nothing matters to the likes of someone like you. no matter of the heart will cross your mind in these early years.
You, who entreat on my inner most sanctum of security..my deepest thoughts and emotions locked behind stolid gates; but under the weight of your eyes, they bend just enough..just enough for you to see what lies behind them..
You, who sees those feelings and those thoughts, those awful thoughts..the ones that plauge me everytime i roll over in bed and open my eyes to see that im alone again. even with you there beside me...im still alone.
does your mind wake in the morning and wander to where it was before?
always knee deep in problems..but i know i ask for more.
well what is it you want from me?
do you want me to run..or do you want me to stay? maybe you'll dissapear, one day.
maybe you'll dissapear...
...and all that will be left is the friends you leave behind..the aching hearts and the tears.
What then..would they have of you?
a pair of sticks...dusty clothes...worn out shoes. and the faint thought that maybe "enough" was just a little more...just a little deeper down inside of you.
But one person is never enough to satisfy that growing thirst. Are you learning to put your able self in the back of the line and the others first...?
the ones that can't speak and the ones that can't feel. the ones without hearts, like yourself.. they have it the worst. Atleast the others will run for what they believe in...but you, you just sit and wait for him to say something..words that may never grace your ears again.
..some will refuse to run that race for you. others would travel the world just to catch a faint glimpse of that finish line.. its flags and paper banner wavering in the distance..
is it not enough for you..that i would be the one to run?

Enough
..have you ever felt the way that i do?wondering if those words were true?
