It hurts just a little
But am I a fool
To believe I am a winner
Despite the final rule
Should I move on from
Needing validation
To search
For vindication
When it's all interpretation
So I didn't win
And it hurts just a little
Yes, I'm jealous
is that a sin
I need to find a different way
to say
I'm good enough
If not today
I'll make my mark
As a writer somehow
I can't give up
not now
I'm starting to believe
In what I can do
So I'll decide if I'm a winner
Me not you.
