Dear Family
Becca Jul 2015
Hi, How are you?
I hope you've been good
I hope life is treating you well
it has not been treating me how it should

are your days full of smiles?
I hope you are laughing everyday
I hope you have no worries
for my life has been nothing but gray

may I ask a question?
I hope it doesn't come out wrong
I hope you are not offended
but I just do not feel as though I belong

why do you always compare me?
I hope I do not always lose
I hope I sometimes come in first
but I know I do not fit your ideal views

what can I do to win?
I hope I do not remain in last
I hope you have the answer
but somehow I know I'll be sorry I asked

why do I not matter?
I hope I can change
I hope I can make you care
deep down I know you don't think I'm strange

Hi, how are you?
I hope you know it's me
I hope you did not forget so quick
I'm the child who always came in last you see
I don't belong in my family. I'm not like them. we are completely different species.

— The End —
