I Am Enough
What are you waiting for?
You have to give more
I won’t, I can’t, I will, I have to
Tears in my bloodshot eyes, what can I do?
The pain inside is driving me insane
No control of the thoughts that stay in my brain
Never enough for anyone or anything
Pain and suffering are all I can bring
I can’t give up but it’s my only choice
I express my feelings but no one can hear my voice
The love I give is never returned
The bridges I’ve built, they currently burn
What keeps me going, it was not hard to find it
My children are what keep me from the point that I quit
I finally found what it is I was waiting for
With them, my children, I never have to give more
