I am the second choice
The one that holds you together
The listener on the sidelines waited to be called

I am the best friend that’s never seen as more
Mending all your wounds of the other guys you so chose
Never overstepping the title you have given me

I make a promise that remains unbroken
That I would never leave your side
Always be there for you, wiping the tear from your eye

I am the second choice
I will never be the first
Only haunting the feeling that you’ll see me as the worst
This poem isn't a complaint, i hope it doesn't come across as one. Being in this position is tough at times though as it could take a lot out of you. Especially when you see this cycle with someone you care about.
