THE BLACK SHEEP

(They called you the problem, because you refused to pretend)

You were the one who didn’t fit.

The odd one out. The too-sensitive, too-loud, too-different.

You asked questions no one wanted to answer.

You pointed out things they were desperate to ignore.

You named the dysfunction, and they named you the issue.

You weren’t rebellious.

You were awake.

But in a system built on denial, the truth-teller becomes the threat.

So they cast you out.

Called you dramatic.

Made you feel like the misfit, the outlier, the mistake.

But let me flip the script..

You weren’t born to uphold broken legacies.

You came to break patterns, not your own spirit.

You weren’t the wound.

You were the mirror.

They couldn’t face what they saw in you, so they rejected it.

But that rejection? That was your redirection.

You found your voice in the silence.

You found your truth in the wilderness.

You found that being cast out was really just being set free.

And now? You’re not the Black Sheep.

You’re the cycle-breaker.

The path-forger.

The one who dared to be real in a world obsessed with appearances.

You didn’t lose your family.

You lost your role in the performance.

Keep standing alone if you must

because the truth you carry is ancient, sacred, and not for sale.
