The sorrow of the youngest

The first is a miracle

The second is always optional

The first gets opportunities

The second gets the leftovers

Rules established based on previous mistakes

Mistrust based on previous experiences

Lies told to convict me

Why does she get to be the replacement?

Why should I be the subordinate?

Age is irrelevant

I’m more mature

But she’s the elder right?

But I’m not her

I’m me

There should be no comparison

The expectations shouldn't be similar

Her school

Her clothes

Her habits

How can I possibly establish myself as an individual?

So what would I change?

I’d be first.
