Never Enough

Location

Above the grave

Below the sky

Always far behind happiness

In front of death

During your journey, something went terribly wrong

But you don’t want to be alive

Among the crowd trying to fit in

Feeling beneath the people around you

Among those who will never notice you

Beside cute guys who will never see your beauty

Between two best friends that shove you out of the way

About to be done. Why bother trying

Against yourself and everyone else

Aboard the lonely train

Underneath an endless raincloud

Without a chance of being happy again

Within a never ending cycle of crying and hurting

Through the river that’s carrying you away

Following the instructions the voices give you

Beyond the point of return

Alone

Considering her past, she shouldn’t have made it this far

Despite what they all said, she kept trying
