Abandonment issues

Maybe Ill always feel like the default.
The best friend until the better best friends are there.
The perfect wife because someone more perfect didnt accept you.
Ill be invited to your wedding if I bring it up and you remember I exist.
Not even second best.
The VERY best, sitting alone in the shadows feeling like the last one picked.

I can listen to your problems if youll tell me how wonderful I am
and dont forget to end the conversation as soon as youre done and I mention how heavy my heart is.

Ill make you laugh until someone funnier comes along.
Ill hold your hand
as long as you leave me behind
sitting alone in the shadows feeling like the last one picked.

I can really hear you.
Im screaming deafening pitches in silence.

Why do I always feel like I owe YOU something?
Just for being nice to me...
