The Middle Child Blues

Anonymous Coy Wildcard #470 · General

Ever since I was little, everyone always seemed to forget about me. My big sister gets all the attention for being the responsible one, and my baby brother steals hearts with his adorable charm. But what no one knows is that I've been trying to find my own place in this family for years. I started a band when I was 14 hoping it would make people see me as someone unique, but even that just made them think of me as the 'band kid.' Today, while cleaning out old stuff from the attic, I found my old guitar and tears welled up thinking about all those hours spent practicing for something no one really cared about. Maybe being the middle child means you're meant to be invisible.
