It's never good enough.

by mandieD   Aug 9, 2005


The thunder roars at me from the heavens. i hear her booming voice.
the rain pitter patters on my forehead. as i stare into her eyes of ice.
the sky has split apart for me to reach a sapping cloud.
i would present my prize to you but i know you'd be too proud.
your face as i present to you the sun the stars the moon,
is indulgent, disappointed, and then you leave the room.
i free the cloud that i have caught and it floats back up and up.
I'm left feeling i am wrong and nowhere near good enough.
why do you constantly make me cry and make me feel so blue?
because the truth of the matter is, I'm really too good for you!

    That's my favourite line, but really the whole poem is great! I have no criticism :)

    Just slightly arrogant that poem, but if someone wouldn't accept a cloud that someone else had pulled down from the stormy heavens, then yes, they clearly are not good enough for the person who managed to pull down the cloud in the first place!

    Good Writing!
