Underdog~ Poem
It will catch you, hold you captive
The truth
And it won’t set you free this time
That you’re not enough
you’re not enough.
always trying to make up
wearing makeup
to hide the flaws that make you
That make you not enough
Underdog. All you’ll ever be.
Under not over.
You’ll never get over
The high bar to surpass. The low self-esteem.
So why do you even try?
Underdog. Don’t lie.
Why let your ego get a bruise
cuz winners can’t lose
Until they do
then there’s only you
your moment to shine
Underdog. And in the end you’ll be just fine.
