Less Than You

Less than you by BambiLynn'01 Because I am the way I am I ask, in Gods eye, where I stand. Am I wrong for what I do? Does it make me less than you? I do not cheat, I could not kill- The things I have, I did not steal. I hurt no one except for me... I've deprived myself of dignity. A sacrifice I had to make, Relates to the life I face. My innocence, long lost so young- Never fully experiencing childhood fun. I followed a path of those before, And, after me, will be followed by more. But does that make me nothing good? Not doing what you think I should? I didn't choose this life I lead, Growing up with lightning speed. Though somewhere else I'd rather be, For always, this is my reality. But does this make me less than you? I know, sometimes I think so too. Sometimes I cry and The Lord, why can't I be something more? Life is rough and as I look around... Things get worse and nothing better. So as I sit and write this letter, I pray my God watches over me, And never gives up on what he sees. I hope, sometimes, he hears my voice; And loves me still despite my choice. What I've done in my hard life I live, Is this all things that he'll forgive? The child long sacrificed in me, As I live out my reality. Am I any less than you? Do you think he loves me too? When you cast your eyes on me- Say one deed is not all you see...
