I can't say that I don't love you.
Because that would be a lie.
But brother, I envy you so.
Because our father's love you scored.
I wanted to be his 'little girl', his one and only.
Then you came and took him away.
Even now, your his only care.
I'm not a part of his life anymore.
Only you.
I wanted his love so bad.
He just threw me away, for you.
I was never the one he wanted, no, I made too many mistakes in life.
He opens the door after a long days work.
His eyes pass by me, like I'm not even there.
Moving straight towards you.
"DADDY!!!" You scream, as you run into his arms smiling.
And my heart breaks once more.
So I close my eyes, and drift away.

I cried with this one, as well. It's so sad that parents pick favorites. I feel like this all the time with my parents picking my little sister as the perfect little angel and I'm like devil because everything that goes wrong seems to point straight at me and say, "She did it!!" Wonderful write! Thank you for sharing and good luck in my contest.
s for your troubles!
