Win or lose
I stand confused
because as...
Avis tried for a long, long time
to be #1, which made them rich,
proving second ain't so bad
unless you're an egotist
of the nth degree, like me.
Why?
I have loved you for years
while being rated 'second-best'
when planting kisses on your lips
which, when heard, is as memorable
as being runner-up in the NC2a's
Still, I promise to strive
while alive or until I die
to try harder than they
hoping to hear you say:
"You are the best there is,
the best there was, and
best kisser you'll ever be...
for me."
I'll wait for as long as it takes;
as long as you understand
We will have to practice.
