Good Enough

Akkiko

Minute in comparison to you,

Standing at your feet.

I am asking your mercy.

I am pleading with you.

"Change all you are.

Become what you are not.

Feelings not yours will be felt.

But you will be good enough."

Good enough for what cause?

Good enough for whom?

Am I a mere sacrifice on your alter?

Am I nothing more than your plaything?

"Hide it all and shove it inside."

I listened to you,

You the father I never knew,

You the tormenter.

Now behind prison bars you cry out to me.

"I thought it was behind us!"

We never got in trouble.

It was you, only you.

Was I good enough for you?

Was I your perfect sacrifice?

Was I the perfect sin?

Was I good enough?
