An Only Child

An only child Never has to fight to the death for the prize out of a cereal box An only child Never knows how angry she can get when someone picks on her sister An only child Never has to cut the last cupcake in half to share with his brother An only child Never counts the Christmas presents to make sure everyone has an equal number in her pile An only child Never knows the joy of giggling with a friend an hour after her parents says go to bed An only child Never knows how exasperating a toddler can be when they take apart things in his room An only child Never understands what it is like to have to share a bath with another wet child An only child is someone I cannot imagine being
