That Girl

Am I that one girl,
the one with a seed,
that one with potential 
to make it big? 

Am I that girl
who's  good but never great? 
That one who would've made it
had the circumstances changed? 

Am I that one who worked
too hard, only to hear
her hard work wasn't enough,
that others were simply better? 

Am I that one girl
who will promise you a win
only to disappoint
when the result is revealed?
