Never enough.

No matter how hard I try, I am never enough. 

I can push past my limits, tear myself apart trying to please but it will never be enough.

I can work myself to the bone and burn myself out to a point beyond repair and it still isn't enough. 

Physical strength, mental ability, tears, and pain. It will never be enough.
No matter how hard I try it is never enough. 

My hopes, my dreams, my ambitions, my soul, is not enough.

No matter how many late nights I spend working overtime and wanting to be acknowledged for who I am, it isn't enough. 

I can spend hours toiling away at my craft and it won't ever be enough. 

My music is not enough. 

My writing is not enough. 

Everything I am is not enough. 

I will never be enough.

This was written recently due to struggles in RL for me. I really hate the feeling of trying so hard to be enough for something or someone and then have it not be enough. It's very painful. But, it's a part of life. So this poem; Never Enough is about that feeling of never being enough. And you know what? To those of you who do think this way let me be the first to tell you that you are enough. You will ALWAYS be enough. That's just my two cents on this take it or leave it.

Souls is a collection of unique poems, written with purpose and with the intent of having a deeper meaning. I write these for myself, as a way to let go of unnecessary emotions so I don't have to carry around that weight. From personal experience, that weight will crush you eventually. And I want to share them with others in the hopes that someone else gains something from reading them. Some of these poems are dark, some are full of light. Some exist because I just had a bad day. Many were written because I felt that many people normalize important issues and shove them into the shadows in the attempts to ignore them instead of addressing them. That is why I have decided to publish them here. Please keep in mind that I work incredibly hard on my poems, especially these, allot goes into them, my time, my experiences, my heart and soul, and most of all, I am at my most vulnerable when I write them. So understand that this isn't someone writing to tell you because "just because that's what's right" or "that's how it is". This is someone writing these crying, letting go of so much pain without realizing they had been holding onto it for years on end. This is someone who writes from experience, never "just because".
So thank you for taking the time to read this, it means quite a bit.

Warning: These poems may contain dark themes (death, depression, self hate, etc) and mild to moderate swearing. Do not read if you are sensitive to either.

And a reminder: it's ok to need help, it's ok to feel like you've been through something too painful to think about. And it's ok to reach out for help when you need it. Never let anyone tell you otherwise.
