1You
-Elphaba's poem to Fiyero
Since the day I was born,
I was brought up with scorn,
hated by all the world,
but you.
From the moment I was green,
and looked so obscene,
everyone feared me,
but you.
Cast aside, and despised.
I was bought, and bribed.
My father, mother, sister hate me.
As did all, but you.
I dressed all in black,
in a frock like a sack,
so I could be mocked,
by all, but you.
Not cared for, unkempt,
never dare, never dreamt,
that I would meet someone,
like you.
Caring for my Nessarose,
and despising all of those,
that dared spare me a passing glance.
All but you.
When I came to school,
I looked a like little fool,
and was hated by all,
even you.
And then, even when,
I had a single friend,
I was still nothing,
but to you.
So I ran far away,
where I thought I could stay,
and hide from all of Oz,
but you.
I fought every and all,
those who had the gall,
to oppose me like that-
but not you.
I took in my Chistery,
my precious little monkey.
I loved him alone,
and you.
Those blasted shoes,
seemed like a ruse,
for the wizard to find me,
and you.
You found me again.
Like a demon seraphim,
I flew through the skies,
with you.
The girl went home,
we're all alone,
running from Oz,
me and you.
And look at us now!
I will never know how,
but I'm so glad to have you.
But- are you?
