Once Upon A Tme

Once upon a time, I was a pauper

Once, I was rejected

Scorned and belittled

Nobody believed that, anything good would come from me

They all thought I was useless

As useless as used rags

But little did they know

Of my future

Little did they know of my greatness in time to come

And when they see me now

It is difficult to place me, for I defy expectations

I am who they know no longer

I know my worth and they see it too

And to them I say now, get lost!
