Her name was Pride , Studded with diamonds , Chest held up wide , Soon became a mendicant .
Her name was Liar , She thought she couldn ' t be seen , Her voice pitched up higher , Till it ended her reign .
Her name was Beauty , Perfect and flawless , Started drowning in pity , When people knew she was a mess .
But there was a girl , Overlooked every time , Didn ' t have fancy attires and pearls , But now it was her time to shine .
Everyone faded with all they had , Consumed with pride , lies , and all the mess , But this girl was glad , She chose her name to be Kindness .
What ' s your name ?
