Damon has always been chosen second,
Second fiddle to Stefan.
Katherine even told him that she never loved him,
and then Elena basically did the same.
Then she turned around after realizing that she had made the wrong choice.
For everyone thinks that Damon is the villain,
But in reality Damon is the hero.
The silent, faithful and unsung hero that will give his all,
To save, to save those whom he loves.
