Failure

I try so hard

to do it all,

I try to measure up

to your standards.

I've done the best

that I know how,

but I guess my best

just isn't quite enough

for you.

I've compromised...

...I didn't do it right.

I've sacrificed...

...I didn't do enough.

I've given everything

that I have to give,

but I guess my all

just isn't quite enough

for you.

I'm losing my will.

I've lost all pride.

I've forgotten how

~lovely it feels~

to be happy.

That doesn't matter.

I don't matter.

I don't mean quite enough

to you.

I just need to try HARDER,

give a little MORE...

But will I ever be enough

for you?

Well, I know what it's like to try so hard and it never seems enough. You've put into words what, I'm sure, alot of people have felt. Good job. But remember, you can't expect to change someone....and that cuts both ways. :)
