Not Enough

You called me wonderful
you said I was fantastic
you claimed I am beautiful
you called me marvellous
in the end I am wonderful, beautiful, fantastic and marvellous, but not enough.

It was a fleeting moment in life
A true connexion to another being
it was to begin with
but it grew for a brief moment to something wonderful

We laughed in unison
We walked in pace
We talked infinitely about life

We saw into each other's eyes something magical

It was a meeting of the minds
a spiritual reunion, almost divine
it was a closeness that grew little by little
A grouping of many things that fell apart

You called me wonderful
you said I was fantastic
you claimed I am beautiful
you called me marvellous
in the end I am wonderful, beautiful, fantastic, and marvellous, but not enough.

We shared our intimate secrets
We joke about your life and mine
We share comfortable silent moments
While together we forgot about the world

You shared your dreams with me
I share my dreams with you
You laughed at me and I made fun of you
We laughed together infinitely, all it seems for nothing

You called me wonderful
you said I was fantastic
you claimed I am beautiful
you called me marvellous
in the end I am wonderful, beautiful, fantastic, and marvellous, but not enough

All for everything and all or nothing
You held me in your arms like there was not tomorrow
You kissed me passionately
You did not want to let me go but you did anyway

I am sure of what I want but not certain, really
You are certain and very sure of what you want
But you fear the uncertain future, there is no middle ground
Even though I would compromise
you rather let me go than together find out.

I was wonderful once
I was fantastic many times
I was beautiful forever
I created marvellous things for us
but in the end wonderful, fantastic, beautiful, or marvellous would have never been enough
