Underestimated

For so long, I was a different person. I didn't show who I am. I tried patience, but there are moments when waiting won't work. And so, I opened my voice and set my muse free. I stepped out of my cocoon. It shook them, each and every one of them. And though they fought, again and harder, I saw that their faces were pale. They've seen me, in my true form. And that, through all these times I was, underestimated. For some, I still am.
