Analysis of Enough
Robert loughran 1962 (Ireland)
I find myself oppressed by the weight of your concern.
I mean what failings do you see in me ,that engender such alarm.
Do i need modification, a little touching up,
.You say i have potential am i maybe not enough.
Am i here and now your dream home,
or a doer up with my best yet to come,.
Ami a project in the making ,is more of something needed.
Is every upward change an enemy. defeated.
Is it possible just possible .that you accept me as i am.
You can be your self made woman, i can be my self made man.
