Many doubts swirl within, but nobody sees how hard it has been. The struggles daily, Irl or online, And the constant feeling that I'm not worth their time. The silence of sitting alone at lunch And the rude words hurt worse than a punch. And in my mind, one thought stays, "Am I not Good enough?" the words I can't keep away. And though I have friends that are loyal and kind, I can almost never ever seem to find, The motivation, the confidence I so desperately need, to finally give the gift to me, to believe. And as all the deadlines seem to fly past, and various assignments I start to amass, The feeling that I'm overwhelmed joins the doubt, and I just can't resist the urge to shout, "AM I NOT GOOD ENOUGH? WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO BE?" I just need all the haters to see, that I'm smart, kind, and loyal, that I can pursever through the toil, that I can do it, that I'm a leader, And that my thoughts, feelings, and talents all go deeper, than what the world sees, what everyone knows, cause when they look at me, the things on the inside don't show. I am me, and that is a fact. So when those feelings start to distract, from my friends, my family, those who do care, I will let the world know, I will declare, "I am good enough because this is me." So, for all those out there, who felt the same as me, listen to my decree. You are enough, you are unique, Don't listen to the world critiques, You are just as talented as everyone, and you have people who love you a ton. And when the doubts start to blaze, keep this motto with you always "I am enough, I know that for a fact, and people are stupid if they don't know that."
