Shes the Black Sheep

7/8/19 She is the black sheep of her family Walking alone in the night She hurts inside from all this pain But always tells herself she is alright. Was never good enough for Mom or Dad Sis always came first She understands now, but for some time Would pray for God to break the curse. She is an alcoholic, and was never good enough Would never make them proud While on her cigarette she would puff. She rebeled away, what was the point The never understood At all So into her bed at night Crying, she would crawl. Feeling alone a alot And always feeling left out She was and still is the black sheep Of her family there is no doubt
