I want

By Cally

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I wanna be the best at something,The best that there can be,But I'm not best at anythingWell, maybe being me.I wanna be a favoriteTheir best thing in the worldI've never been a favoriteYou'd think that I'd have learned,I wanna be the special oneThat's held too close to moveThen I wake up and know I am'cos I am loved by you.
