Not good enough

I am not good enough
when I smile, it is not wide enough
when I frown, it is not ugly enough
when I cry, it is not real enough
when I am happy, it is not fake enough
when I look at you, it is not long enough
when I ignore you, it is not short enough
whatever I do, my enough is never enough
I am not good enough

Enough? I beg, this is too much. Reminds me of Kween Onakala's jebele song. Yes, I love that song.

sounds like something that could be written in collaboration with Kiibati, e.g. as in point:counterpoint.
