Black sheep

Black sheep of the family that is me,
middle sibling of three.
No -one talks visits or phones
Yet when they  all talk about me its nothing good they all just moan.
Guess im ment to be all alone.
Love,talk,and care i wished I recieved from you.
I wish things was different I really do
Us siblings once was close,
 but now drift so far away
I look back on the old good day
Why does everyone push me out
All I can do is cry and shout..
But on my own I will survive without a doubt.

This poem hits deep, the way you capture that quiet loneliness mixed with strength at the end feels super real and heartfelt. Being the "black sheep" is something that resonates with many people, Susan.
