I remember it all
every moment I shared with you
but they are just haunting reminders
That I wasn’t enough for you
I could’ve checked all your boxes
I could’ve been the reality to all your promises
but it wasn’t enough
I could’ve let down the iron gates to my heart
and I almost did
Until I found out about Naomi, Alexis, and the others from the bar
I’ve never felt so sick
You had my head spinning
while all the demons were grinning
Cause they knew what I refused to see
That I was doomed from the beginning
and you could never really love me
You could hold my hands
You could explain yourself a thousand times
But the betrayal on your lips
couldn’t bring the light back in my eyes
How could this happen you ask?
Oh, you don’t understand?
How is that possible if you were only playing with my head?
Imagine the look on my face when the jig was up
The hurt and numbness of sorrow set in
and I didn’t seem so tough
Probably, because I wasn’t enough
I think I need you to say I wasn’t enough

Painful to read. A darker write. Sad.
