What once was

‘Look,

Look,

There she walks,

A poor weakling,

Big eyes,

Braced teeth,

The school nerd,

A disappointment,

Waste of air,

She should just die!’

They said.

Did it hurt?

They hoped it did.

But,

These words I’ve heard all too well,

That was me!

At one point or the other

The outcast

But never was I once ashamed

Now I stand tall

And will forever tell the tale.

The girl who was one the fable

Is now their zeal

My lips could never be sealed

And my pen

Will never slip!
