2nd Best
I never make it first
I must always settle for second
Victory's always hooked away
I always land in defeat
Why is life like some grand competition?
Why do I try to become first?
Even though I try my hardest
Why is it failure if I don't win?
I'm never going to be number one
Not even with my friends
Not even with my family
Because I'm always superfluous
I am the fifth wheel
Just there because I am
No-one wants me in a team
So why should I even stay?
You all cope without me
You don't miss me when I'm gone
I feel I'm never needed
Even in a crowd I feel alone
People always push right past me
Like I'm not even there
Like some insignificant shadow
Something unimportant in the way
I'm always the back-up system
I'm never first priority
The net to catch you when you fall
But always taken for granted
Maybe one-day I'll walk away
Then my burden will be gone
Maybe then you'll truly regret
Thinking that I don't count
Who am I kidding?
When we're in partners I the spare
The lock without the key
Not a life but an existence
You think that I don't mind
Just because I don't speak up
It doesn't mean that I can cope
It doesn't mean that I don't care
I pretend you really do want me
But that's definitely not true
'Cause when I fall I feel nothing behind me
Nothing to come to my rescue
When I fight I'm always beaten
The trophy always slips away
When I try to succeed to always fail
When I try to fly I always fall
Is it because of what I do?
Is it because of how act?
Is it because I like what you don't
Is it because I'm different?
I'm always second best
I'm never going to be first
Not with you or him or her
Always behind number one

Sorry I changed the chappy order but this was meant to be one of the last chappies but I thought this must have been the reasons why Kai wanted to poke about in the abbey. I know you guys are probably thinking but Kai doesn't care or anything and his friends always say that the need him but have you ever been in a group of friends and you're the oddball that always gets left behind, forgotten, always the agony aunt that people turn to but when you need someone no-ones there? Or if you're at a family reunion an everyone's catching up on each other and you're the youngest that doesn't have a clue what's going on so you just sit in a corner while everyone ignores you especially on Christmas and when they try to include you they act differently and what's worse is they all speak in a different language. Trust me, it sucks and that's how I think Kai must feel some of the time cause that's how I and most normal humans would and in my point of view no matter how strong on the outside Kai looks he's still human and has his feelings. Okay this is more a poem about how I feel but I think Kai felt the same way and I like having someone I can relate to even if he's just a fictional character and before you ask I'm normally a optimist who barley knows how to look on the dark side but hey, it's fiction and it makes a good poem
PS if you're reading The Spirit Within you probably won't get an update today because my exams start tomorrow and I'm revising my butt of.
Note to reviewers
Roni: wow you don't think its crap and you like the action? Maybe I should do more of that stuff, I'm running low on ideas for feelings at the moment. Thanks for saying that you like my poetry, it makes me feel loved :D
Roxanne Morinaka: he is pretty confused isn't he. This poem sort of mentions it again but in a different way. Thatks for reviewing
Jani Rieme: hahahaha. I'm sort of like that too. If an author doesn't update soon enough I make up the ending myself.
There's a really good series called the warriors series but they only had book one out and I was sooo obsessed to try and get the second book. I would stop asking my mum to go and check with the book store. Don't worry, I promise I will finish this. I've got the last chappy done so if I suddenly get bored I can just stick it on the end.
