Left Out

feeling sorry for myself

What is it that cause my own family to exclude me

From all the family moments

BBQ’s and parties I never seem to make the list

Cause somehow no one thinks of me

 

My children never get to play and laugh

With family members who never take the time

To get to know them

Cause some how we always get left out

 

No one ever sees the tears I cry

Or hurt I feel being left out

Seems no matter how much effort I make

I am still the outcast

 

I thought this time it would be different

Got my hope up just to morn again

Because no one remembered me

But everyone else was there

 

I’m not sure what I did so wrong

To be left on the outside looking in

At the family I so need right now

Who just don’t make room for me in their World

You touched my heart with this one! I have been, on occasion, the family outcast and it hurts. I love your brave, raw emotion...it always makes for the best writings doesn't it? Wonderful!
