Good Enough

Good Enough

By

Jose M. Euvin

 

 

I’m never gonna be good enough for you

The pain you left

You can’t undo

Even though it hurts inside

You will never see me cry

 

Perfections not for me!

Was it so hard for you to see?

Like a soldier I stand tall

Even though my heart you’ve torn

 

My skies have darken

The rain pores down

My soul is broken

The pain resides

 

I can’t see the light ahead

And

Still you don’t understand

 

My hearts in pieces

You should’ve said no

It was all a game

You never loved

 

You could had stopped the pain

Now life will never be the same

 

“I never really loved you”

Was the last I ever heard!

All I wanted was to hold you

Yet my love you pushed away

The rhyme started out strong only to taper off and then suddenly become sporadic or vacant... the overall writing was good but if you choose to begin with rhyme it should stay that way... that's just my opinion but enough about that. The poem was pretty good.

A cathartic release of pain. Well written and expressed.



I'm never gonna be good enough for you
The pain you left
You can't undo
Even though it hurts inside
You will never see me cry

my fav. lines... not wanting the one who hurt you to see how much pain they've caused. You'll never give them that satisfaction. Great write!

Ther is a lot in this stanza because tall in this case is a pun for "Was it so hard for you to see?" also tall as to take confrontation abruptly, by using one's height, also you both were not seeing eye to eye on the issue, this height differential is a whole metaphor for this relationship.

I really love this the rejection and pain are so clear! Keep up the good work!

[SPINNING ON that dizzy ..]

Full of emotion and hurt - asking the questions when we just don't understand. This would be tough to take - someone being that heartless - and it truly is heartless to say something so hurtful - that is not honest - that is dishonest - because someone was led to believe something based on something .... Good to get this out and makes a person think! I tend to agree on the rhyming - do or don't makes it read nicer but the wasn't lost without the rhyme.

awww
its a real good poem tho
but some advice, as hard as it is to follow and it is...
never let anyone bring u down, but most importantly never bring yourself down

[skittles]

well i like it it has a deep meaning of a lost love and this would break most ppls hearts just by reading it

[Nicole (Carpe Diem)]

wow - i hate when people say that someone isnt good enough -- especially when it is a person that you love and that is supposed to love you back -- this is full of that raw emotion that you have been sharing with us lately -- great poem.

This is a healing piece and venting those feelings is good for that process. This is well written with good honest emotion and flow. Keep writing venting is good for the soul, and the mind. Nicely Done.

This was really good. When I was reading it, I immediately thought of a few people I know who could relate to it. My attention was captured because while a single individual is speaking, he is voicing the thoughts of many people who live now and who lived in the past. The flow is nice, and I can feel the emotion in it. Always a good thing.
