When the past and the present collide
It is easier to put events in prospective and remember that you were bullied
Older school thinking was to ignore it or go with the in one ear and out the other theory
Newer school ideas are still under construction and Artificial Intelligence may solve it yet
It brands you and marks you most of your life
Even though you eventually come shining through
You still feel ugly and it echoes louder when people look at you
When he looks at me I am reminded that Ugly Ducklings become swans at least in his blue eyes
You see something that I have yet to see and just maybe it is Better than it looks
