Black Sheep

My emotions abandon me
leaving me empty, hollow
the numbness sets in
and im wrapped in isolation

Your words cut like burning knives
ripping holes in my soul
parts fall away from me
and I have no family

The black sheep in a white herd
storm clouds follow me around
alert them to my presence
when will I be found

I leave my fate behind
forge my own path
taking lifes chance
cant be erased

In these dark woods
I can see her light
guiding my heart
ending my fight, so I can
live through the night

Torn and broken
I emerge from this fire
scars on my soul
mother called liar

Beaten and neglected
I survived the crash
bruises on my face
father was disgraced

Malnourished and dying
my body is found
escaped to their
brother dosent care

Black sheep washed and dried
fed and cared for
turned to white
by the family thats right
for her

She has found were she belongs
