I am not enough for you
because Your heart is a bottomless
pit, lusting greedily after love.

In your eyes, my love merely
reaches the brim of a thimble while
hers overflows the most dazzling cup
and that you cannot resist.

You seem to think I am not enough
and I suppose under pressure I cannot
provide you with the things you need.
