One Word

Can make the difference.

Guilty? or Not?

It doesn’t matter what I think.

It only matters what the jury believes.

I am nothing but a name in a story.

And that terrifies me.

I have no control.

Will the rest of my life be like this?

One word

Can make the difference.

Guilty? or Not?

I hope they’ve done their job.

Made me look innocent.

Made me look kind.

But the other side’s done their job

Made me look like a monster.

Trying to seal my fate.

One word

Can make the difference.

Guilty? or Not?

The question mark

Inconsequential, but also important.

The fate of a world, mine, depends on it.

One word

Can make the difference.

Guilty? or Not?

I can’t control my destiny.

I don’t know why this happened to me.

Am I a monster like they say?
