Nobody's Favorite

I am nobody's favorite,
I plea and beg, I am not a favorite daughter to a mother or a father,
I am nobody's favorite.

I am nobody's favorite,
I watch the favorites be favored,
I am not a favorite niece to an aunt or an uncle,
I am nobody's favorite.

I am nobody's favorite,
I whisper a plea, I am not a favorite little sister to a big brother or a big sister,
I am nobody's favorite.

I am nobody's favorite,
i wish to the stars, I am nobody's favorite,
I am not favored I wish to the stars, I wish to the moon that i could be somebody's favorite,
But in reality I am nobody's favorite.

What a touching write. Wow! I'm really moved by this piece. I know the feeling. At times we feel we are being sidelined. I found your write beautiful...in a sad way. Welcome to the Soup.
