A poem I wrote about what some people have said about me, and this is my response to it. People shouldn't judge someone until they know them.


"The Devil's Child"

So you think I'm the Devi's child?
I have a family that loves me
And I love them back
A family that raised me from my birth

So you think I'm damned to Hell?
I have had many friends in my life
People who trust me with their secrets
Secrets that I always keep

So you think I'm Lucifer?
I have so much love to give
And I only get a small portion returned
But it doesn't stop me from feeling

So you think I'm wicked?
I have a passion for life
A passion that people like you don't understand
Passion is something you'll never understand...

So you still want to condemn me?
I have dreams and hopes
That I am determined to chase
As reckless as it is

I feel like evreryone else
I love like everyone else
I dream like everyone else
So I'm the Devil's child, am I?
