Enough
You ask me to bleed,
I cut myself.
You ask me to suffer,
I put the first nail in.
I have given all that I am,
Yet you ask for more.
My dream,
You are.
My future,
You were.
Never enough,
You needed more.
You have taken away my right to be,
What am I supposed to do now?
Hollow shell,
Empty of care…
Devoid of soul.
Dried out,
No more tears to cry…
Cold heart,
No more blood to squeeze.
I tried to let go,
You held on.
You tried to let go,
I held on.
Messed up.
Where do I go from here?
Sometimes I wish you would go,
Other times I pray for help.
Falling to my knees,
Sometimes I just wish it was all…
Enough.
