POEM

Just another poem by your little boy Nelson Joshua
MY TWO FACES.
From dusk to dawn I'm on
Holding something or lighting something
I'm a treasure of two worlds
Call me holy or brand me worry
A Silhouette pleasure
Now I go to there and I come to here
On the fence but I'm trying My best
To be what you want in a world of division and discrimination
That's why to some I'm a pleasure and to others an abomination
Branded with scarlet 'A' in blood
But My sins not you to judge
For I leave it on for the Master who knows
Yet condemned I see you the same
My accuser doing the same
i try to do what is and yet i do what isn't
i struggle trying to do what will be smiled on
yet my past continually pursues my future
and the condemnation continually pours on me
