"Never settle for less" I quoted
But don't I always settle for less?
Insecure, weak and vulnerable
I chose to swim in a fish bowl while I stand for the sea.

Second choice, second woman and friend
Funny thing is I was never good at maths
What comes above number one is something I ignored
I was the first child, the first in my class and the first one people usually notice.

And then I grew older, and "first" did not belong to me anymore.
