hate all the times you settled

for less

for second place

third

for anything less than the cream

in friends

lovers

life

with God

family

at work

at school

always thinking, ‘maybe this is as good as it gets’

it’s not

you should get as much as you give

shhh, listen

the universe is trying to talk to you

it is saying, ‘there is more to life’

open your eyes
