Immortal

The devil said
“You are not good
Enough”

True as it is,
I am not good,
Not good enough to win,
Not good enough to be you,

At least I’m me,
The better half
Of what I’m made of.

One day I’ll die,
But memories will linger on,
I will be omnipresent.

But even then
I will not be good enough,
Not good enough to win,
Not good enough to be you.
