How Can I Be Ready?

Silver, not gold.
Left hand, not right.
Backup, not lead.

Understudy, but they don't
take time
to teach.

One day, I'll be gold.
One day, I'll be their
right-hand man.

But for now,
the spotlight evades me.
Everything goes
to the golden,
the silver seems forgotten.

But when it comes time
for the backup to sing
a solo,
will she be ready?

Will she have received
enough training and
attention to be able
to accomplish
what was never expected?
