Ugly Duckling

Long long ago

For as long as I can remember

Since the dawn of ancient times

I've built walls up all around myself around my mind and soul

That no one else except myself could get too

The feeling of acceptance is something I craved

Adventure and wonder of the great beyond followed through my veins

Not my so called planned out destiny as a boring tomb keeper

So I changed myself and my personality

And despite all of the horrors and atrocities that I have commited

You still saw me for who I am not as a monster but as a kind tomb keeper

Who had simply lost his way and despite what others might say

Marik's other half included he was no ugly duckling far from it in fact

What Serenity saw wasn't an ugly duckling but a beautiful swan
