Fairy Tale | Dana Bell

Hidden Beauty

When you first see her, you wouldn't call her pretty.
She filled her mind with books, while her friends date.
She had beauty all around her, only she couldn't see it.
"Ugly and out of place," was all she thought of herself.

Years went by and she grew up daily into a swan.
People gazed at her with awe and showed respect.
Enemies before wanted to be with her constantly.

She gracefully accepted how people treated her now.
She never held grudges; she was a lot better than that.
She always made to spread her wings and soar.
She may have not seen it then, but she was always beautiful.
