I never seem to be quite good enough,
I try to hard, or I just give up.
I am never quite what they are looking for,
I am a size to small, or I am to short.
I can never be just what they want,
It's always me that's on the hunt.
They don't want someone like me,
Why would they ever look at me.
Am I too Ugly?
Am I too Short?
Am I too Loud?
Am I too Messed up?
I have to much on my mind,
I can't just wast my time.
To keep on looking for nothing,
And that's all I end up with is nothing.
I am never what they are looking for.
I am not never what they see.
I am just invisible,
That's what it comes down to.
I am invisible.
I am not what you want.
I am not perfect.
I am just not good enough.

I love it !!!!!
This poem is one that seem as if you pulled it from the core of how you are, and really how people make you feel. I have been there and at times struggle with it. I think is truly awsome!!! there is so much in it. The feeling, the anger, the confusion, the wanting to be loved for who you are, and etc. I love it !!!!! Please check out mine sometimes.
