Those droplets that escaped the clouds

rained on me all night

I opened my eyes to the darkness

That surrounded me like air

Scared of the oblivion spread by the dark

I froze where I was

Untill, the demons in my head

Came back for me

Every memory felt like hot iron on my skin

Scarring my soul, my fears were back

My entire life, now just a memory

Muddled moments

The journey's all messed

Living in my head, battling with myself

Lost , tired, torn, defeated

I'm like a tied up knot

Not even trying to find an end

To untangle the mess

In their eyes I lost

Now, done for

I have no future

It's all dull and rough

Ready to end it all, I decided to give up

But before I could say the final goodbye

I asked my exhausted soul

"Why was I never good enough?"

The answer came from within

"Because I strived hard to be

Someone I'm not"

The silence that followed echoed with another question

Who am I then?

Confused and lost

But determined to win

with a thousand desires and a single dream

I'm me, shining in my eyes

My love is never enough

If the first one to receive it

Is not me.

Greetings!

In your poem, I really love how you incorporated the lines of the prompt into your poem. And for me your poem gave a message, that one's love will never be enough; if they don't receive it first. It really sent shivers down my spine. You, very nice. Keep going. :purple_heart: :purple_heart:

-yours truly, palesapphire.
