Jean Valjean

Jean-
Ever so simple, yet so deep;
And they never seemed to understand,
Never thought you an honest man . . .

Veils of "justice" drawn across their eyes,
And they only seemed to lie;
Leaving you be was a thought never occurred
Jailing you was a punishment you didn't deserve
Ever scarring you by unjust hatred-
And it's a pity that what could've been
Never was . . .
