Enough -- A Poem of Sorts

 

Enough

How did I get here again?

Why do You feel so silent?

I know You're supposed to be my joy,

But right now nothing feels like it's enough.

I am exhausted

Feeling lost

Worn out and alone

Aware of every failing

When will I be okay again?

Is there any peace to have?

'Cause right now there is a waterfall

Trying to pour from my eyes,

And nothing feels like it's enough.

Your child is exhausted

Feeling lost 

Worn out and alone

So aware of every failing

Will I ever be okay again?

Why do You have holes in Your hands?

You sweat drops of blood

While Your friends slept.

And I feel like that's not enough.

When I am exhausted

Feeling lost 

Worn out and alone

Aware of every failing

Begging to become okay again,

You remind me:

Why would I go forty days without food?

Feel My Father turn His back?

Let My friend betray me,

If I wasn't going to be enough?

When you are exhausted

Feeling lost

Worn out and alone,

Do you think I endured all that,

To abandon you?

Peace child.

I have recorded every wavering step.

Gathered your bitter tears.

And I will always be by your side,

To give you a future and a hope.
