I have a sister,

She's older than me

She's perfect in every way,

She's intelligent,

She's beautiful,

She's fit,

Also she's very optimistic,

Many admire her,

I feel happy for her

In the midst of my depression,

If anyone asks why

I feel depressed

It's because

I'm not intelligent,

I'm not beautiful,

I'm not fit,

I'm the complete opposite.

I'm quite a pessimistic person

You see.

I see things very negatively,

I appreciate things less.

I admit,

I really am sad

That

She gets to excel

So well

That I get

Compared to her,

It's unfair,

Isn't it?

To be told numerous times

'Why aren't you like her?'

'Why can't you be more like her?'

'Why aren't you trying?'

It didn't take long that I became void to it.

To tell you the truth

I hate judgmental people

Those kinds who only see

The worst in me,

Well let me tell you,

Don't you dare underestimate me

Cuz I'm capable of turning the tables.
