Why am I not good enough for any of you?
What did I do?
How can I be good enough for all of you?
I do everything you ask me, everything you need or want, and yet it’s not enough
My mind is deteriorating, my soul is scuffed
And yet you all respond with a huff
Your words that once dripped with honey now secretes poison
If I were to speak it’d only cause an explosion
And yet, I still give you all my utmost devotion
My brown eyes now look black
You all have taken everything and I desperately cry for everything to be given back
Everything is slipping through the cracks
My skin is cold and my head is numb
I must be dumb
Why do I succumb?
Why does everyone else get to live in bliss
While I am shoved into the abyss
Where I’m wishing that I would be missed
I am trying to gather my broken pieces
My insanity increases
And my hope decreases
Why am I not good enough for any of you?

A fine write Raven.
Meanwhile, on a lighter note - Oohh, you're good enough for us; you've nothing to worry about. Except my singing, of course. Who can stand it (so I say!). heehee.
I used to feel this way in my younger years. At the end of a relationship i would feel so empty and worthless. Other people seemed interesting but i was drab.
I think my mental change came when i began to value the things which genuinely interested me. Perhaps i was late in developing my interests. I began to be an interesting and creative person and enjoy my life.
When you see people who enjoy their life around you, you are seeing attractive individuals with both self worth and respect from others.
Food for thought perhaps?
A well written sad piece from you today.
