so comfortable and so broken in

Do you ever think
        This could make me happy enough?

(There is a vast difference between
        happy
   and
           happy enough.)

What does that enough mean?

It underlines what we think we deserve.
    It says what we believe we're capable of.
       It speaks of disillusionment, cynicism, broken dreams.

Happy enough
    is
      a bride mourning at her wedding
              a child wearing ill-fitting hand-me-downs
          a student enrolling in a major that will pay the bills
      a parent resigning himself to knowing where his child is . . . fifty percent of the time.

Happy enough
    has nothing to do with
             happy
                or
                 enough.

It has to do with settling. It has to do with giving up. It has to do with hopelessness.

Will you be
       happy
           or just
                happy enough?
