Poem

I crossed hell's fire with my innocence shattered

A wolf in sheepskin
Was the downfall of my dreams

From a pure and sweet bliss
I was thrown in a guilt's abyss

My childhood memories
Now were tainted forever

In my innocent child mind
I waited for my knight
To take me away from the pain I held inside
But there were no sword fights
Nor duels in the dawn

The wolf in sheepskin 
Never paid for his sins

I was blamed for my hate
Because I couldn't tolerate
The ones who should defend me
Pleaded for my enemy

My books were my heaven
Their pages my sanctuary
Where I could lose myself
In their tales and happy endings

Time passes and memories fade
Never forgotten
Never forgiven

I still have my skeletons
Hidden in the closet
But I know I'm not the one to be blamed
For the sin was not mine

This wolf controlled my past
But I won't give him power over my future
Now my soul is bright
For it was purified in my fight
