I Was Thrown Out At Birth

Twins! Our mother was excited 
Until she met me.
I was the odd one.

My sister was thrilled
But I was thrown out at birth.
My sister came back to visit sometimes

Until she forgot
Too socialized to come back
I was the wrong color

Not my fault
But I paid the price
Wrong color. Wrong life.
