Second Best Second Last

[ragnarok_hound]

I have been defeated by a foe who is my friend.
I cannot hold a grudge.
Though my heart does rage and scream,
I cannot hold a grudge.
I have been surpassed,
And in one heart,
Delegated second best.
Worse yet than a broken heart,
For it feels like second last.
I hold no special place.
Am considered no special person.
I am now, and will always be second best,
And second last.
