Swan Song

 

An ugly duckling

Turns into a

Swan

At least that’s

How the story

Goes

Beautiful

I am

Inside and out

Is what

I am often told

Lies

Multiplied by 10

Then twisted

And made

A

Lie

Again

If not

Then

Y

Is my world so

Dark

So

Cold

Full of grays

And

Browns

Wearing

Scorns and

Frowns

Cause

It seems I am

Destined to

Drown

In my

Darkness

Alone
