Enough?

maydanae

Long strides have been made, yet never enough

Fall for your mind games, the loving is tough

Page filled with ink stains; it's time to rebuff

Merge to a new lane, drive past the same stuff

Have blood on my knees: the pavement is rough

Got all of these peers, yet who can I trust

Put down the whole hand, I'm calling it bluff

Keep asking myself "When is it Enough?"

  • Comment from author about the poem: I often ask myself if I am ever going to be good enough, and those thoughts of incompetency are running through my mind all the time, so this poem kind of addresses that internal questioning.

    We all ask at times how much is enough. A good poem that emphasizes this very issue.
