You don’t know how to talk to us
All you do is bark








Although you might not mean it
Your words go straight to heart

I know I cannot hate you
Because you are family
But sometimes you are so infuriating
So who can really blame me?

I can’t do anything right
No matter how hard I try
All I see is disappointment
When I look into your eyes

I dread spending time with you
Because I don’t know how to act
We never have a good time
Because neither of us can relax

You once said that I was your favorite
But we both know that isn’t true
After my brothers and cousins were born
You moved on to someone new



We have nothing in common
So what’s the use in trying
Whenever we have a conversation
Inside, I am slowly dying

You tell me that I’m wrong
But never the reasons why
How am I supposed to fix my mistakes
If I don’t know what to try

You went to his competition
And you pick the twins up
But you’ve never heard me play the cello
I guess I’m out of luck

So up come my walls
The barrier I hope you cannot break
But it’s not impossible to crumple
Let’s see how long it takes.
