"Do you know what it is like,
To always be just second best?
To do everything you can do,
But still not pass the test.Do you know how hard it is,
To try and try but not succeed.
Because no matter what you do,
To be the first, you cannot lead.This fact stays engraved inside me,
It is something I cannot forget.
Because I do everything I can,
And I'm still just second best." - miranda j.
