Good enough?
Earlier this week I was awakened by his thought
About is he good enough?
He was able to fall asleep again,
but I was left with a feeling of dread.
I laid awake dealing with the pain in his voice before the alarm said it was time to get up.

I asked a few questions throughout the next couple days
The dream that began to haunt me, he couldn't recall.
I realized my heartache was more of my pain.
For I am the one who ain't good enough.

How does one keep that pain locked inside? 
It's easy to do when its what I'm acustom
The pain is an old friend now.
But a friendship I'm trying to break.

We finally discussed it after 5 days of listening.
And came to the realization that neither one of us wins
When both of us continue to live under the umbrella of pain.

So tonight I'm telling the world, that we must not surrender
We must not continue this pain.
But instead admit to no one but ourselves
That we can be good enough.
