It is the way it was...

In a group,
As old chords struck,
Reminiscing incidents,
Of Marking  bravery.

While others went gaga
Over the real hero
Of Their lives,
I sat there with my eyes shut.

For i didnt know to hide the blush
When i knew i would never
Be able to match their ardour
In praising you as much...

I remembered all those times,
When i tried so hard,
To enjoy all those extra increments
Of being your sweetheart...

I knew you had a handful
To pick your favourites,
But for me you were
The only one...
But i was always
Last in the race.

Its all my imagination,
As you would say,
I loved you as much
If not going a step
Up On scale...

But how could you realise,
For it was always unspoken,
Those special gestures of love
That were reserved for others,
And I received none...

I tried so hard,
To grab your attention,
And do everything of the likes,
Study hard, no parties,
Listen more, argue less,
To be the one who
Receives your affection..

Yet it never put me,
In Your beloved ones league,
And i ended up feeling
Like another sense of duty...

The years did pass,
I tried relentlessly,
But i did fail
As today it seems.

I did everything as
Per your wishes.
My life guided and shaped
By your life changing decisions.

For once i thought,
I might have earned
The lucky tag of
Being your daughter.

So i marched ahead,
Entered a fight,
Wherein i needed
Your support
Sans any questions.

It hurt so much
To look and find,
That as i took one step back,
U put yours two behind.

And now as i stand
In another world,
With kids and family,
In all together...

But it did teach me,
As i learn with them
How to raise them?
How to be a better mother...

Yet i fail, when i
Try to decipher,
The ingredients that make one
A Darling daughter....
