Poem : The Blacksheep

[image error]


Your blood, it doesn’t

run in my veins

My face, it doesn’t

fit into your frame

And I just don’t

belong in your name


You and I

lived lives

unequal


I was raised

Alcoholics

and needles


All I’ve known

Broken, like my homes

broke, like my wallet

broke, like my soul


Never truly

felt like

I belong

Like I’m the lyrics

singing along

to the wrong song


Misplaced

even in the place I stay

In a family of smiles

I’m a smear of pain


In a herd of white

I’m a shade of black

A devilish grin

A wolf in sheep skin


Your blood, it doesn’t

run in my veins

My face, it doesn’t

fit into your frame

And I just don’t

belong in your name



Anybody else the black sheep of their family? Let me know in the comments.
