Ages ago, story of a girl
Dejected for what she looked
Thinking just fair and beautiful
Had rights to glory booked

Did not realize that beauty
Lies in the eyes of beholder
Always self deprecated
Life felt like a boulder

A breakthrough insight
Blind to the imminent change
Discerned beauty is not just looks
It's in wielding ones skill range

Dawn of this realization
Broke her sealed senses
Now she is her own favorite
Exploring life beyond fences
