I am justice

I am Justice but I serve guilt.
I am Pain under a cheerful disguise.
I am as free as a bird in a cage.
I am Faith but I doubt myself.
I am fulfilled yet I yearn for more.
I am loved but I am forgotten.
I am cynical yet I search for God.
I am troubled but I feign happiness.
I am given a key but there's no door.
I am running a marathon that has no ending.
I am drowning in guilt and yet,
I am Justice.
