mispriced

They said, no hope, don’t hold your breath.
They said, you’ll die a dusty death.
They came to laugh, they came to pick
My soul apart, their judgment quick.
They said, not worth another glance.
They said, you’ll never stand a chance.
Why keep what can’t be any duller?
A waste of colour.

They came so close to hating me
But they’ll be imitating me
And I’ll be shining even fake.
An unforgivable mistake
To get what keeps the world enticed
Mispriced..

The glow of fame lights up my frame.
All this is just a waiting game,
All this is just a bit of fun
Before I dazzle everyone.
Another century or less
I’ll be a brilliant success.
They’ll all be standing speechless under
My timeless wonder.

They came so close to losing me
It never stops amusing me.
They say, I knew it on the spot.
They say, I can’t believe they got
What keeps the universe enticed
Mispriced.

So worth the wait and so much fun
To see them dazed, to see them stunned
To see them dying to possess
My pricelessness.
