Am i good enough?
Your sweet,loving voice is like the sirens call
The euphonius, haunting singing
drives me to my death

I saw this coming
but your face blocked my thinking
And now my heart is in your hand
bleeding to death

I thought i was good enough
but in your eyes
I was just a waste of time
Why me? Why me my love?

I gave you my heart
My soul
My mind
Why me?

My tears overflow
I can't hold the pain this time
This hurts me uncontrolably
I have to go

Figure this all out
But your sirens voice sings in my mind
Driving me crazy every second of the day
Once again my mind is in a fog

I thought i was good enough
But i was wrong once again
Now my heart is on the floor
cold and hard
Like marble stone
Cold and lifeless...

I thought i was good enough
good enough for you...
But i guess i was wrong

-------------------------------------------------
I was listening to "Good enough by Evanesence" at the time i was writing this. i was just getting an idea on what to write about. In my opinion i thought the song was better than my poem haha. (And this time im not selling myself short Earl! lol), i just like the song better lol

Hmm i might have met you before but then again maybe not. The world is pretty big and i think it would be shocking if you acctually did meet me.

But yes perhaps she isnt as bad as i say. I liked her... but beautiful things like love just didnt seem ot last like i hoped it would. o'well life moves on right?
