This feeling...
You get used to it.
No one has to know,
That you cry yourself to sleep.
He'll never know,
That He's part of the reason.
You get used to rejection,
And learn Not to have expectations.
Disappointment.
It never works out.
I don't even try anymore.
That's what its about.
I'm getting over it,
One day at a time.
I really hope you enjoy,
What might have been mine.
I came really close,
But i still came up short.
I'm never good enough.
Never pretty enough.
There's always something,
Someone has that i just don't.
I must not be enough period.
So i have one question,
For anyone who cares.
Will i ever be good enough,
Just me...
My soul bare.
I'd give so much,
for a little for me.
But they all seem to get,
What i need for free.
Life isn't fair,
In fact its nowhere close.
It keeps taking away from me,
What i need most.
So I'll keep on trying,
Hoping to catch a break.
So maybe this smile for you,
Will cease to be fake.

I like this. At first I didn't think I was going to get into it but after the first few lines I started to feel the emotion that you wrote it with.
Good Job.
