today proved something ive gone through all my life.
ive been in my brother's shadow ever since i popped out.
no matter how hard i work, what i do will never be good enough.
ive worked my ass off in school since i got into school.
ive tried my best in sports, but i was never #1.
ive tried to have the best friends, but i always fail.
ive tried to be beautiful for them, but my brother always won.
ive thought i had the best relationship, but my brother always had better.
ive competed with my own flesh and blood since i began to walk and still...
i fail, im never good enough, im a terrible daughter, im a terrible student.
i can only do so much, but for them...its not good enough.
they make me me feel like im a burden, like im not worth their time.
i from this point on give up, because ill never be as good as the golden child.
the perfection, the best, my brother.
so today and tomorrow and forevermore i will sit in this shadow,
i will try and try but ill never reach what he has done.
i will never have the better life, the better significant other.
the better acomplishment, the better personality.
i will never be good enough, and im finally accepting that.

congrats golden child, you have won.
congrats parentals for killing your daughter's hopes and dreams.
