David Lines Poet Prose Poetry

For Tamara, Never Enough

WHERE ARE YOU WHY CAN'T I FIND YOU
WHY DID YOU LEAVE  WAS IT ALL TRUE
YOUR SMILE, YOUR LAUGH, YOUR SPARKLING EYES
 NEVER COULD HIDE YOUR DISGUISE
DON'T YOU KNOW YOU WERE A STAR
WE ALL KNEW THAT'S WHAT YOU ARE
AND IS THAT WHY YOU WENT TOO FAR

NEVER ENOUGH, NEVER ENOUGH,
CAN'T GET ENOUGH, WHATEVER IT IS
NEVER ENOUGH, CAN'T GET ENOUGH

SUDDENLY EVERYTHINGS UNCLEAR
AND I'M SO SAD THAT YOU'RE NOT HERE
THOUGH YOU'VE GONE THE FEELINGS STAY
ISN'T IT STRANGE THAT LIFE'S THAT WAY
YOU NEVER REALLY SAID GOOD BYE
AND I'LL ALWAYS WONDER WHY

NEVER ENOUGH, NEVER ENOUGH 
WHAT EVER IT IS, CAN'T GET ENOUGH

IT'S DEATH'S REVENGE THAT LIFE GOES ON
AND MEMORIES LINGER THOUGH YOU'RE GONE
SHOULD WE BE GRATEFUL AFTER ALL
IS LITTLE BETTER THAN NONE AT ALL
NEVER ENOUGH, CAN'T GET ENOUGH
WHATEVER IT IS, CAN'T GET ENOUGH

IS IT JUST AS WELL YOU GONE
DID YOU THINK YOUR LOVE WAS WRONG
FORBIDDEN FRUIT IS ALWAYS SWEET
BUT NOT ENOUGH TO FEEL COMPLETE
WHATEVER IT IS, NEVER ENOUGH
EXCEPT FOR JUDGEMENTS, OH SO TOUGH

I SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE ONE TO GO
SAVING YOU FROM WHAT YOU KNOW
I DIDN'T CARE AS MUCH AS YOU
FOR WHAT WAS SAID OF WHAT YOU DO
AND HOW I WISH THAT YOUR LAST THOUGHT
GAVE YOU ALL THE PEACE YOU SOUGHT

AND THOUGH YOU'VE LEFT THIS MORTAL PLAIN
I HAVE NO DOUBT WE'LL MEET AGAIN
SURELY THERE MUST BE A PLACE
SOMEWHERE THIS COSMOS HAS THE SPACE
WHERE IN ENOUGH WILL BE ENOUGH
WHATEVER YOU NEED WILL BE ENOUGH
ENOUGH WILL ALWAYS BE ENOUGH
