Good Enough?

There are lots of things wrong with me.
I have a infinite amount of flaws.
How can I ever be good enough?

My childhood was broken and shattered
I still carry those scars
How will I ever be good enough?

I'm totally invested in this sham of being me
Its far too late to back out now
Doesn't that make me not good enough?

My fears halt me in my tracks
They suck the air from my chest
How will I stand to be good enough?

I've spent so much time on my inside
I never focused on my outside
Do I have what it takes to be good enough?

I'm weird and strange with pain that shows on my face
I'm lame and annoying with missing pieces that show on my heart
Doesn't that eliminate me from ever being good enough?

How can I do this job?
Its way bigger than anything I've ever done
How will I ever do this job?
I'll have to shed all my baggage
Will I ever be good enough to do the job right?

Someone is going to trust me
Someone is going to look to me for guidance
Someone is going to expect me to fight for them
Someone is going to demand love from me
Someone is going to take the focus off me and make it all about them
Am I ready to be good enough?
