I'm never as good
ever at all
either by friend or family
I've always never
stood out
with my brother beside me
his light shining
brighter
with my mom
and her hard work
and my dad
with his full head of complicated algebra
I'm never as good
as any of them
I'm entering a stage
where I'm getting better
but i'll never be better
and I mourn that fact
life goes on
and I can only hope
that fate deals me fairly
with even cards
but life was never fair
and fairness
is what we think
ourselves
and we think we deserve it
when we really don't
so I'm never as good
but I can still hope
if not
then there is really no meaning
