A short yet powerful piece I think that states sometimes we're never good enough for someone but the fact is they're just not worth it |

The simplicity of this poem makes it more powerful in my opinion. The title speaks volumes to me because it tells me that this poem will be about someone elses life. If we go by just the title you leave who it could be up to the reader's imagination which is something i really like in a poem's title. |
