enough

I love you at the bottom
of the hole you made yourself
they pushed you down
but you kept digging on
now it's dark and cold
and all your hope is gone
the light is on the other side
you'd see it if you'd turn around
you're knocking too hard
on a door where no one cares
at a house you never fit
in a city you never called home
this one's not meant for you
but you're the one who dared
to stand up and say enough!
they did not bat an eye
all they see is black, white
and dollar-greens to wipe the lies
so scream out loud
enough so you believe
I belong out there
where there's space for me
with a million colours to see
in sunflower and lavender fields
because some of us can't fly
when our wings are tied
they robbed your confidence
because you let them feed it
without ever believing yourself
you're so much better at anything
you'd only put your mind to
and now you're left bare
feeling completely incapable
but you're enough for us
they don't need to believe it
but honey, you must
remember you belong to the sea
to the blues, the waves and the winds
it breathes in you even when you're scared
where else would you get all these tears?
so stay where you feel at home
as far as you can but as close as possible
it took you so long to find the anchor
a home between the mountains and the sea
is what you've longed for forever
start here
