outside looking in

outside looking in

You’ve taken over my family

You’ve taken over my life

Though I’m the original child

Everything we do benefits your life

You change up all our holidays

To suit your new boyfriend

And then when we try to reschedule

You get your way in the end

So we no longer fit in here

We no longer seem to care

When the end comes my friend

Will you even be there

There was a time I’d call you sister

Even though we share no blood

But you’ve become selfish

Or maybe I’ve opened my eyes

Because here we sit

On the outside, looking in

While you sit holding court

With my family, my kin

I sit here forgotten…
