Bad Guys Always Poem by bakuli bhakali

Bad Guys Always

Rating: 4.3


I'm not the bad guy you think
If I say that
You won't believe it now
And I can't say it how

My hands are stained in blood
But I'm not the cold murderer
I hold this gun
But I'm not the bearer
I'm not the man you think
I've no link
To the terrible world
Where everything is sold
And people are cold
Life and heart
Lost in dirt
All the time they just lie
No matter how much we cry
You and I
Live or die
They look healthy
Talk filthy
Things go under the table
That world is just horrible
I never wanted to be a bad guy
And lie
All these incidents
Are just accidents
It was my fate
My destiny
It was just the circumstance
That made me as me
But I'm not the man you see

I'm not the bad guy you think
If I say that
You won't believe it now
And I can't prove how.

Hi Bakuli, Very poignant thoughts, heart-rending. Nobody is born evil. It is the circumstances that make a guy bad. I firmly believe that, anybody can mend his ways, given a chance. Excellent flow of ideas make the poem great..

The line(s) between good and evil is always too thin.. We prefer to live and 'judge' in extremes - oposite values - good and evil, beautiful and ugly etc., but somewhere the world is neither entirely whilte or entirely black, but somewhere in the middle - grey - perhaps in various shades of it.. Well written Bakuli - no one is good without favourable circumstances, no one is bad without valid reasons.. The tip of the iceberg is not the entire picture... A fine poem.. Thanks again..
