Misunderstood

Author's Notes: This poem is told from Faith's POV at the end of Enemies.  Enjoy!

I can only wonder, "How did I come to be here?"
On the receiving end of the scorn and the sneers.
Unable to go back, unconfident to advance,
Please, God, give me one more chance.

Here I am in misery of where this path has lead.
Here I stand uncertain of what lies ahead.
All bridges burned, all true friends lost.
Can they forgive me, these people I've crossed?

Now, it all seems out of my range,
Simply because I don't know how to change.
Entombed in the dark, searching for light,
Yet I can't seem to do what's right.

Is there any hope; can I win back their trust?
Can I erase those looks of disgust?
Is it forever lost, my chance to prove myself, to do good?
For not a moment longer do I wish to be misunderstood...
