Youngest In the Family

Are you the youngest in your family? The oldest? Aha. If you're the youngest, you might probably know how dreadful being the youngest in the family can turn out to be. So here's a tiny piece of writing that I feel would sum up what I feel as the youngest person of the family....

Sometimes I sit and wonder,
What's it like to be older;
Older, not in age,
But an older member of the family.
Have you ever experienced
The dread of being the youngest-
Serving as a platform for the older ones
To get rid of their irritation and stress.
How horrible would it be
If people just treated you like a puppet-
By being bossy, and monitoring all your moves,
Sometimes questioning even your sleep!
Being the youngest is a boon, said they,
And of course I feel the same;
But many a times I sit and ponder,
About why I don't get insane!!
People kill you from the inside,
Stab you from their other side,
'Other side', cuz' that's not what they always show;
Ah! How I wish I was older,
How I want to be stronger,
Cuz' I really wanna get rid of this anger!!
