Something I won't ever have


 

Only time family wants to talk is when I'm doing "bad",
No hey how you been,
Family is such a foreign word to me,
I don't even belong in the one I'm in,
I'm such an out cast,
So misunderstood,
Haven't even been in my life,
So why even consider them family? 
Sit up at night wondering how it feels to have one, 
A mom and a dad ,
Because I have neither,
Aunts and uncles houses to go visit, 
Cousins to see,
And when i get married to the one i love ,
I won't have a dad to walk me down the isle , I won't have a mom sitting there crying saying she is finally all grown up,
I look at other people and see how happy they are with their family ,
And I'm sitting there wishing I was in their shoes for just a day
