revelation

if people thought you were the devil
but you knew you were never the devil
yet they still call you the devil
and they tease you as the devil
and they mock you as the devil
and they laugh at you as if you are the devil
even though you are not the devil
and the whole world thinks you are the devil
and you hate it so much that you vowed not to be the devil
and made sure that for everything you do you will not become the devil
even for what you say, you made sure it is not of the devil's
for you never wanted to be the devil
you never liked being called the devil
and you cried a thousand times everytime you are mistaken to be the devil
because you never were the devil
yet that is not what they see, instead a devil
even when you changed names to prevent being mistaken as the devil
even when you changed everything around you to not anymore be called the devil
amidst all those you were still mistaken as the devil
and you hated, a thousand time more, being called the devil
because you knew you never were the devil
and you never will be the devil
because you hate everything about the devil
and you don't want to do, as much as possible, anything that would affiliate you to the devil
because you have that long history with the devil
and that anything that would make the situation graver is unbearable
but now that you are asked to play as Tom,
is it not just right for me to feel uncomfortable?
