Heh. I know all too well how you feel.

Hey ..its a nice poem... I have faced the same situations many a times... And that too it was my best friend always at the frist place. I always felt happy for her sucess..and i always got stuck..because i did never want her to loose also... We both were talented in the same fields and so i still stay second... I don't mind it.. but you know.. my parents keep saying...that..this.. you feel upset that time..

I was reading this poem again.. and now i could relate myself to another circumstance..... Thought i will share... IT so happened in my life... that i had to be a second preference for my boyfriend.... It's not because he has another girlfriend.. he had to neglect me for his family's sake...for what ever reason.... I don't consider this as a total failure.. i still wait in my life for him to come back.... But still presently i am second for him... and i am a looser. I don't want to win over his family... i just want to be withhis family....Some how... this poemdid remind me these... so i thought of sharing.

Your poems just have so much meaning i love it! You are truly a very talented writer and should consider doing something with that. Of all your poems ive read i still feel like i dk but it just relates to me and those are the poems i like. so basically great poem!
