The Favorite Child 2
Iām yelled at
To comeplete chores
He isnāt
All the pressure and problems
On me
Not him
_Never_ him
_Shut up! _
I hear that a lot
Am I just not worth listening to?
Iām forgotten
My parents arenāt focused on me anymore
They donāt listen to me anymore
If I forget,
Iām not a good child at all
If he forgets,
Itās fine because heās trying his best
Iām fussed at for simple things
Always on the phone?
So is he when he has his
Listening to music?
He doesnāt want to hear it,
So I canāt listen to what I love
I wrote about this in my diary,
For it to never be read
And kept secret
He **stole** it
And never got in trouble
I did
For my own thoughts
I wrote how my parents hurt me
They _punished_ me
To show how rude they could be
I donāt write in a diary anymore
I tried to journal
With thoughts are feelings
But Iām scared
theyāll find it and read it
And punish me again
Iāve told this to my friends
They said its messed up
And didnāt focus on it much longer
They tell me to write in a diary
But no,
I WILL NOT
Because I donāt want to g at punished
For **my** thoughts
And **my** feelings
Thereās no privacy
In my house
None at all
But yet,
Theyāre too lazy to read
The poems
And storys
I pour my heart and soul into
Iām **_trama dumping
_**On this app
And they donāt see it
Thats amazing
They always want me to talk to them
HA!
Like I will ever do that
They tell me how much _he_ talks
And says they want me to open up
Like _him_
I told my parents I wanted Aās and Bās this year
They said āNo, only Aāsā
and I couldnāt say anything else
My brother said he wanted
Aās Bās and heās going to try not to get a C
My parents said that was a great goal for him
He says I donāt deserve what I have and get
I hate that theres always one voice
That agrees with him
I guess they donāt like me enough
Donāt want me enough
I guess Iām not the favorite for them
(Erm I posted this before but it was glitching for some reason? Im not sure why tho. But this also has some added things to it to its not the exact same)
