"I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now?"~John Lennon

The favorite one;
Always there,
Always one step ahead;
The favorite one,
Always better,
Always without a care;
As they say how bad I do,
And how good you did;
Point out my mistakes,
And reward you,
on your improvements;
They leave me to hide;
In a dark cave of shame,
anger, and hate;
For some reason,
I've always envied.
How you have been the first,
to do the best.
There hasn't been one thing,
I could do.
Without you right there;
-Always one step ahead
leaving me behind...
And being so blind.
