Same as Always

As close as our kindred spirits seem to connect
I reach out...
but in "our" moment
your attention is given
to a more radiant soul...

no matter how loving and sweet
no matter how pleasant and pleasing
no matter how gracious and meek
no matter how cute or funny
no matter how cheerful or wise
no matter how geniune I am
no matter how the best of me
shines....

it seems
one thing
never fails...

there's always
that one ideal
   someone
that points out
i'm second again...
