Not enough

by haley mcclure   Dec 12, 2006


You used to think I was beautiful
Perfection was your word
You said I was your everything
I used to be your world

You used to look at me this way
Wrapping your hand around mine
And I was so convinced you loved me
Ever time you smiled

Now I can only stand here watching
Everything you think I donâ??t see
Sheâ??s all the things Iâ??m not, and you love her
Just the way you used to love me

Every day I am reminded
Thereâ??s no such thing as passing pain
As I watch you wrap her in your arms
Pull her close to your chest again

Why couldnâ??t I be enough
To make you truly happy inside?
Why werenâ??t you content with me
Why am I still here..asking â??whyâ???
