Unwelcomed
They’re just like us.
Just trying to survive,
in this crazy
brutal world.
Supplying,
for themselves,
and for their families.
Are they really that bad?
A bad reputation,
isn’t always true.
Really,
they’re just like me and you.
They are trying their best,
in a world where it’s decided,
that they are bad.
Acceptance,
a hug?
Those are things they’ve never had.
The world tells them they’re bad.
They are punished for it even if they’re good,
so why not be bad.
Really,
they wanted to be good,
but nobody allowed it.
They were pushed away,
exiled from everyone and everything.
Are these villains, really villains?
Or hero’s unwelcomed by the world.
