They said I had enough

Enough for me

Enough for my children

Enough for my children’s children

But they were wrong

Late nights now amount to nothing

Anniversaries forgotten sting that much more

And school plays feel like memories I let walk out the door

And for what?

Rented memories in a fast car

A boastful house that kept us apart

Now there’s nothing for my children

Nothing for my children’s children

And nothing and no one for me
