am I enough
Am I enough, a question that haunts,
In the shadows of doubt, my heart taunts,
I feel like they're better, unbroken souls,
Am I enough, or are the words left untold?

I thought that I would be the one,
To wipe away your tears, to be your sun,
But in this darkness, I find myself lost,
A shattered soul, a heart that's been tossed.

Am I enough, in your eyes so bright,
Or do you seek solace in another's light?
I yearn to be the one who brings you peace,
But in this emptiness, my love's release.

Am I enough, as doubts creep in,
Insecurities whisper, beneath my skin,
I long for validation, a love so true,
But am I enough, for you to choose?

I thought that I could mend your broken heart,
But now I question if I ever had a part,
In your world, where dreams and hopes reside,
Or if I'm just a passing shadow, pushed aside.

Am I enough, as I compare myself,
To those who seem to have it all, wealth,
In this sea of doubt, I'm drowning deep,
As my self-worth crumbles, lost in the sweep.

Am I enough, my heart softly cries,
As I try to hold on, through tears and sighs,
But the truth remains elusive, out of reach,
Leaving me questioning, in this love's breach.

Am I enough, a question that lingers,
In the depths of my soul, where sadness lingers,
But I'll still hold onto hope, fragile and small,
That one day, I'll be enough, after all.
