Second best

by Karen   Jun 21, 2004


As I sit and think about you
I fall into my soundless, lonely world
Anger runs through my veins
But at the same time
My body succumbs to the pain I've kept locked up
I can't get back to reality
I'm stuck in a world of frozen moments
Moments of betrayal, lies, and deceit
Moments of nothing but pain…
They keep racing through my head
I can't stop them
I can't help but think of the pain you've caused me
My jaw clenches, my hands tighten into fists
The anger running through my veins turns to ice
And a feeling of hatred washes over me
I'm no longer stuck in a world of frozen moments
But in a world of black nothingness
“You're the one who did this to me”
“It's your fault I feel this way” I think to myself
Then I hear your voice…
Slowly I come back to reality
Everything disappears and all I see is you
Your voice melts my anger
Your smile kills my pain
It's like you bring me back to life
But then I hear her...
She calls you over and you go so eagerly
It's then that I realize
I'll always keep this pain with me…
I'll always be second best
