un unicorn

are you un unicorn
stand out in the crowd
do they tease you beat you taunt you
make you feel ugly when you win
hands down

sometimes do you falter
lose the tough in you lose
the fight within you
when they've torn you down
so far down your beauty sagging
to the ground

many days under a blanket a haze of bewilderment
and confusion waiting for the clearing
forgetting that your horn can guide
your horn shall lead the way
has lead the way of strength in times of fury
and furious furious furrow

brows brown unborough

it's a strange time of change and loss and pain
change and loss and change and gain
but no big dreams like heaven await like
a dream you had in a heaven too late

but to be fair you refuse to grow trying to hang on to
a default horn like pegasus or uniball
sometimes does good and people want your beauty
but in your haven unwanted haven of nothing worth giving
only what you have taken
no missed opportunities in your wake

growing pains for a weak unicorn means tears in your exterior
but the skin grown back for double dowble after midnight you will awake
and walk untiil dawn breaks
