Longing to be first

I have never really be first

Of that, I thought I had no thirst

I now contemplate that desire

Instead of second, I want to be higher

Why can't I be the first one that someone sees

Even if it is just the early morning pees

When is the time right for me

Who is holding that golden key

I deserve as much as anyone to be happy

I am tired of feeling crappy

I want to be number one

But not just with anyone

I have an idea of who this should be

But how do I find a way for her to choose me

It is not a question of love

We do that as well as the turtle dove

One day I hope my words may sway

And she will come my way

Until then, I will be her best friend

Even if that is all we are until the end

But I want so much more from her

I hope with all my heart that will occur

I will continue to not be number one

Though I still know how to have lots of fun

It just will not be complete

Until next to me, she sits on this seat
