I tried to capture you
With my youth
But my youth is not
Enough
I tried to hold you
With my tainted beauty
But my beauty is not
Enough
I tried to keep you
With my fleeting charm
But my charm is not
Enough
I tried to impress you
With my mediocre talent to string words together
But my words are not
Enough
I tried to dazzle you
With the feelings I felt for you
But my feelings are not
Enough
And I knew, just as well as
You.
That I am not good enough...
