Adequate

Tell me, do you feel incomplete?

The water drips in the bathroom. The faucet continues to leak even though you tried your best to fix it.

Dinner is cold again. You didn’t make it home by the time you said you would.

The phone doesn’t ring that often. You wonder why your texts are left unanswered.

The paperwork sits on your office desk, and it takes every bit of courage for you not to break down.

 

You spend a few minutes in the bathroom, alone. You let the tears fall. Some days this nagging feeling of inadequacy catches up.

I’m not good enough.

They deserve better.

I can’t do this. I can’t.

But love, listen to me, please.

Who else is there, but you? Who have you got, except for you?

 

It takes a while, but it comes nonetheless. You realize you can do this all.

You are not perfect. No one ever is. But you are getting better. Even on the days that are harder than others.

You can fix this. You can fix yourself.

You are enough.

Things will get better, and you will be okay.
