Never Enough

Santajah Douglass

why is it never enough I do it all

why is it never enough all for one and one for all

why is it never enough someone always dissatisfied with the effort I am making 

 

I cook and clean but I'm not Cinderella 

I'm smart and I read but I don't play the beauty to your beast

I'm creativity and I have dreams but I don't fit the role of Rapunzel or Tiana or even side characters who are hardly ever seen

 

why is it never enough I do it all and yet everyone is always displeased 

why is it never enough all for one and one for all when we were so suppose to be a team but it never like that  

why is it never enough someone always dissatisfied with the effort I am making until I'm alone and my heart forever breaking

  • Comment from author about the poem: When I was younger I was that girl who was used and everyone source of amusement. I worked really hard but I felt what I did was never good enough and it didn't help that no one really had my back and so I had to look out for myself. I can't fully trust anyone I'm not with the temporary story or you just being done with me because you find me boring. Strength take a lot of experience it not always there in the beginning but overcoming your demons take guts and I certainly have guts but today poem is to show how what you see is not always what you get and sometimes when your looking on the outside you really have no idea what going on in the inside and how that truly affect someone.
