I remember when I was still in preschool,
You're the most adorable boy I've ever known.
You told me, "Go away!"
I was confused but hurt deep inside.
But still, I kept quiet.
I remember when we reached gradeschool,
I was strolling along the corridors, carrying my books.
You stepped in front of me and said, "You're ugly. Go away."
I was confused once again but this time, I felt degraded; I felt doomed.
But still, I kept walking.
And I remember when we became Seniors in high school,
You're still the most adorable boy I've ever known.
But I held my chin up and walked past against you.
This time, I wasn't confused.
But still, I kept walking with tears rolling down on my cheeks.
And now, I can see you from a distance.
Now, you're not the most adorable person I've ever known.
Because of the scar inscribed in your face, you're the ugly one now.
Good thing there's a knife in my bag when you told me to go away.
This time, I am confused. Very very confused.
Where should I hide your head now?
