Hate
Hate
I hate the fact that I can’t win
I fear to loose yet I distaste being the intermediate
I want to be seen but not considered the second
For being best makes me a star
I hate to lose though I can’t win
It scares the hell out of me to be lost in the first’s glory
For I am second
When I smile for second runners up
It doesn’t mean I wanted that post better
For winning is fame
Is conquering
Is appreciating your good efforts?
And that’s why I sit on my work desk
To work hard
To make sure I meet winners
To learn
To understand
To appreciate
To believe that I am not an intermediate
But a winner
Someday, someway
For I won’t lose
