“Enough and More”
Enough! Enough
of the emptiness
Enough! Enough
of the pain that leaves me less
And less feeling inside
Leaves me needing to be
found… wanting to hide
Enough! Enough
of the food that will not fill
Enough! Enough
of the hunger that leaves me – hunched over
And over and over again
– devouring the tasteless morsels beside me
Instead of the feast
you set before me
Enough! Enough
of my own will getting in the way
Enough! Enough
of not listening to what you say
And saying all the
wrong words at the wrong time
Missing the message you
send in the rhymes
Enough! I need
enough of you to drown out my one-man-show
Enough! I want
enough of you to overflow
And flow to the ones
you send me
So I can realize – I
have more than Enough!
