NEVER LIKE THE ONE I COME FROM

An Angel,
How could you breathe life into someone so twisted, rotten to the core?

A Beauty,
How can something that came from you be so ugly, inside and out?

A Queen,
A calamity your face sits on a peasant, so unworthy of your image.

A Warrior, 
How can an offspring of yours be this weak and pathetic?

A Champion, 
A shame you bore a loser that is always defeated, giving nothing but disgrace.

A Saint,
How come something that's supposed to be of you have turned out so viscous, cruel and unkind? 

But the real question is, 
How can someone as perfect as you beget a monster like me?
