Sometimes It's Not Enough

 Sometimes it's not enough to tell someone you love them. 
To place your faith in them and to do for them like you would like them to do for you. 

    Sometimes it's not enough to just be yourself,
 because being yourself doesn't always get us where or what we want. 
   
 Sometimes it's not enough to just ignore all the signs of destruction,
 when they are constantly being thrown in your face.
     
 Sometimes it's not enough to just walk away
 when the things that you're walking away from is following close behind.
    
  Maybe it's not enough to acknowledge what you see. 
Most of the time you're in denial and that THEY can see. 
   
 Maybe it's not enough to be constantly reminded of how great you are.
 And how thankful I am that you're a part of my life.
   
 Maybe it's not enough to not only have your back, 
but also walk beside you facing all that you face.


    Maybe it's not enough to tell you how I feel 
and be completely real.
  
                 Sometimes love is just not enough.
