Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Enough For You

Search for me
Pull me out
Of myself and self doubt
Snake charmer play your magic flute
Make me believe you love me too

Reach way down deep
Past brick walls
Beyond pretend, to all my flaws
See the Me that I really am
Love me truly if you truly can

Rip off my mask
Tear my disguise
Don't believe my pretty lies
Hear my real voice,  feel underneath
Let me be enough, finally

Chorus. Let me be enough to deserve the love you give
Let me wake with you each day, and each day let me live
Knowing you know me, yes, you do…
Your enough for me,  let me be enough for you. 


Lift my veil
Reveal my face
Lead me to amazing grace
Overlook the wrong I don't mean to do
And I promise to love you like this too.

Strip me down
to the skin
As innocent as I was then
A new creature without any rust
And show me once again how to trust

Clean me up
with great care
Until I stand before you bare
Let the shame I feel finally go away
Let our life begin brand new today

Dear Crystol, What a beautiful, vulnerable, and honest exploration of love and self-acceptance. I loved listening to your sweet singing while reading your wonderful poem. I always like how you express such complex emotions in such a lyrical and rhythmic way. Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel

Aw Crystol, I adore this lyric too! So pure, so heartfelt, so vulnerable, so loving.. which is deeply touching and alluring. Your melody, voice and strumming blend seamlessly to create a wonderful, emotive vocal and poetic experience. I especially loved "Strip me down/to the skin/As innocent as I was then/A new creature without any rust/And show me once again how to trust" - unguarded and receptive and beautifully expressed! Warmest wishes my soulful friend.. ~Susan
