This poem is dedicated to all of the people who have experienced this feeling before.


Failure is not an option

There are things in life we must do

Failure is not an option

It is hard to be in a family of perfection when there is so much imperfection

I strive to do better in everything

To beat them

To beat her

Failure is not an option

Some people wonder if it is worth the struggle in the end

Some people wonder if it is worth all the pain and suffering

I work so long and so hard to figure out I am only second best

So perfect she is

So many imperfections I have

Failure is not an option

I want to be free of all this pain

All of this sadness

All of you

To always be considered second best

Failure is not an option

I am never satisfied

I strive to do more than she did

To love more than she did

To never be second best

I can always do better

Failure is not an option

To work so hard and then to fail

Failure is not an option


It would be nice if you all reviewed...
