He,She who is not loved..........

I am He who must be forgotten
sacrificed,sidelined
I am She who must not be seen,
a terrible thing ,a sin
a child born out of wedlock.

I am She who must not be heard
a bad past,
history which must be erased fast.
He who is a mistake,who must remain forever in the shadows.

I am He denied of love,
a gift ,No!, certainly not from the Gods above.
Denied of maternal love ,left to suffer
I am She without a voice.

I am He unworthy of love and happiness,
She left to suffer the pain,
The voiceless, I suffer in silence because
I am HE,She who is not loved.
