Not Good Enough

summer • Mama to Topanga Monroe

Maybe I’m not tough enough.

Maybe I’m not hard enough.

Maybe I’m not bitchy enough.

Maybe I’m not intuitive enough.

Maybe I’m too broken.

Maybe I’m too scared.

Maybe I’m too much.

Maybe I’m too overwhelming.

Maybe I’m not good at reading signs.

Maybe I’m not good at loving you.

Maybe I’m not good at being a partner.

Maybe I’m not good at giving space.

Maybe I’m not good enough.

Maybe I’m just sad.

Maybe I’m just lonely.

Maybe I’m just hurting.

Maybe I’m just trying.

Maybe you should cut me some slack.

Maybe you should watch your mouth.

Maybe you should hold my hand.

Maybe you should tell me you love me.

Maybe you should kiss my lips.

Maybe you should thank me for all that I AM.
