The Middle Child
Middle child come and play
Middle child come and help with chores
Middle child middle child listen listen
Mother and father hear me said the middle child
For I wait and silently do work that you wish for me to do
And yet I seek one thing from you.
Oh parents parents how do you make a child so lonely and invisible
Even though I am the middle.
The one thing that you should like, like those of your favorite sandwich. No one cares much of the bread which is there to just hold.
But still I would like all of us to be happy.
But yet you leave the middle child feeling so low.
Yes you didn't mean this to happen then why does this happen.
For the middle child is also one of yours.
Middle child middle child for I am still in the back listening to your words
As you talk to the others about college and such.
But yet you never say a word to one.
Me the middle child.
