The New Favorite

She looks great in my clothes, atleast that's what everybody says,
Like I wasn't the reason they noticed them in the first place.

She laughs with all my friends like she's always belonged,
I hate that she fits in so fast where it took me so long.

She wears my sweater like she's discovered something rare,
And I spend the whole night pretending I don't care.

She says the same things I used to and somehow they sound brand new,
But maybe everything hits different when it's not coming from you.

And I hate the girl I become whenever she walks in,
Like confidence is something only one of us can win.

And maybe that's the difference that took me years to learn,
She's wearing what I wore, but she can't be the person that i am.

I've spent so long worrying that she's going to take everything from me, that I forgot the one thing she can never have: the person I became because of it.
