my heart is stuck in second place

[wonder_girl22]

i let my walls down
for a moment.
i let myself feel something for someone,
perhaps i shouldn't have.
i told her how i feel,
still waiting to hear.
i'm sure i'll just hear the same thing i always do.
my heart is stuck in second place,
second to everyone and everything else.
what sucks is that i really like her,
and i thought she felt the same.
i guess if she did, i would know by now.
my heart is stuck in second place,
where a friends hearts should be,
i guess thats where it will always stay.
perhaps i'm defeating myself,
before the game is over.
perhaps i just know the game all too well.
i hate the fact that i've succumb to referring to it as a game,
and that i am but a pawn.
and my heart will always be stuck in second place.
