Enough

in unlimited capacities
I want
the more I want of you
the less I receive
leaving unmet yearnings
which cause disappointment
it is unfair to expect
more of you than you
are capable or willing to give to me
Mary said:"enough is as good as a feast"
but if your enough, is not enough
than I need to make a decision
yours has already been made
