“The One and Only”

All of my friends are telling me

I’m lucky and free like a bee

Fortunate to seems but for me

It’s not as easy as what they see.

Being only daughter is so sad

It makes me feel crazy and so mad

To do the things asks by Mom and Dad

Irritated me because I’m odd.

Clean this; wash the dishes all I hear

Arrange those and these, Oh Mama Dear…

To obey is nice, to complain is rare

Just to let my parents feel... I’m here.

Yes! They love me full and they are proud

Gives all the best I need and must have

They teach me to live a simple life

No hatred but love which fills my heart.

But still I feel very lonely

To see my peers with big family

Displace the face of feeling envy…

Just take a deep breath, take it easy!

I wish I can play with a bro or a sis

It runs in my mind how happy I’ll be

But I also think – will we always agree

In everything we’ll share, will they be happy?

If I have a big family as I imagine

Can I study in this school and get all I need?

Maybe yes or maybe no but one thing is for sure

That my parents may be happy but very much pressure.

My parents decided to have me and two more

But God did not give them for us to nurture

Until now I’m alone still waiting like before

Holding a dream with the thoughts life is too good to feel bore.

Though I’m stating this sadness of my heart

The other side of it is a contentment part

To have responsible and loving parents is a jackpot

That God has given me to be grateful for all I’ve got.
