I’m the dream girl,

But never the reality.

I’m girl that everyone wants,

But not what is needed.

Never the first choice

Rather, the second

Or third

Or the alternate

The back up plan.

How I long to be chase, to be craved.

To truly be desire.

To be someones one and only.

God, to be someones something;

Their everything.

To be a sure thing not a maybe.

I ache to find home in a heart

And leave no space unfilled.
