Never Enough

by HOLLY ARMER   Jul 13, 2004


I'll never be enough
for any man I know.
There's always someone better
and off my lovers go.

Never looking back
as they leave me here.
I'm losing all hope
with each falling tear.

I don't want to live
a vacant love-less life.
Am I destined to be, forever,
a husband-less wife?

Someday, won't I be just
what he is looking for?
I'm sure he'll be like them
always wanting more.

At times I feel content not
having the love of a man.
But other times it is really
more than I can stand.

Cause I want romance and
flowers and passionate kisses.
And when I'm not there I
want it to be me he misses.

I want a man who longs for me
and craves my tender touch.
Someone who will tell me
he loves me so much.

But apparently I must not
deserve any of these things.
I just wish I didn't know
the happiness love brings.

Cause if I didn't know,
I wouldn't miss it like I do.
But if I didn't know love,
then I wouldn't know you!

In case you don't understand the husband-less life line: Me and my husband have been married nearly four years, we have been split up for 3 1/2 of those years!!!

    Wow i really liked this poem Holly - and i hope you find what your looking for. Someone as talented and with a heart such as yours surely can't be alone forever! I believe there is someone perfect out there for everyone so strong in the meantime till your handsome prince comes along - which he will a person like yourself its only a matter of time before someone snaps you up. :o)
