For I Was Not Enough; Poem by Valarie C

For I Was Not Enough;



Through the unbearable silence,
My lips fall apart to whisper your name
I'm trying to say I love you
I'm trying to show you in everyway I can,
Anyway I can
Only, when I finally say the words
They fall to the ground unheard;
As you walk away
And in that moment-
The truth of my loneliness
Seeps back through the cracks,
As I will never have you
And you will never love me.

-V.C
