did you think
i was born like that?
honestly
i was the exact opposite of that.
but the way they treated me
made me transform
into something i am not,
something not very nice.
i had to leave everything behind
even though i hated to.
but it wasn't a choice.
it was my calling,
my destiny.
i had to have nothing to lose.
