Second Best
I've never chased the crown, I've always settled for second best.
I just realized this.
And I have subconsciously been doing this on purpose.
Not thinking I deserve this.
Like a subconscious punishment for myself, because I was always programmed to believe that I was unimportant, always unrecognized and unvalidated
I linger just below my peak, a shadow of what I could be
Because I never believed that I deserved to be on top. That was for other people, not me.
Or was it really because I was told that was all that I could be?
And thus, that's mostly what it's always been for me.
And now, I'm scared to be amongst the best,
To really put myself to the test.
But- lightbulb moment -
NOT ANYMORE
I figured it out, without a doubt
Now I'm finally going to settle the score!
From now on, I will strive to be more! More than ever before!
Because myself, I've been learning and yearning to adore
And WOW! Who could ask for anything more?...
