The Innocent Man

I spent many years in prison for being a pedophile but I was innocent.
The jury didn/'/t believe me and San Quentin was where I was sent.
The guilty party was free to hurt innocent children and he wasn/'/t caught.
The prisoners and guards treated me like garbage even though I was not.
I thought that prison would be the only hard part but sadly, I was wrong.
I have to move from place to place constantly, I can/'/t stay at any place for very long.
People demand that I leave every time I find a new place to live.
Even though I/'/m innocent, people will never be able to forgive.
Men punch me and the ladies spit on me and slap my face.
Every single one of them should be put in his and her place.
I/'/ve cried countless times for being treated like a piece of trash.
I keep proclaiming my innocence but I continue to be bashed.
The guilty party got off scot-free, he didn/'/t even spend one day in jail.
I have just six words for all of my accusers, "You can go straight to Hell!"

Sometimes false accusation cut deeper than if it were
true. And those scars seem to last longer too.
Speaking from experience....not of doing hard time
or jail...or even being accused of any serious crime
but being accused of doing something by a loved one
that you know you didnt do hurts the same. Thats a
story for another time not a proper thing to be told
in a comment box :)
But it is amazing how many times this kind of thing
happens and afterwards people tend to be very
hypocritical because treating someone like this
without thinking once that they could very easily
be the one in that person/'/s shoes.
GREAT piece of writing my friend youve done it
again.
