Before
I was a war,
I was a sword.
Before
I was a tree,
I was a seed.
Before I was a cliff, I was a canyon.
Before I was a feast, I was a famine.
Before I was a day, I was a dawn.
Before I was a prince, I was a swan.
Before I was a corpse, I was a kid.
Before I was a cloud, I was a grid.
Before I was a crush, I was a kiss.
Before I was a got, I was a wish.
Brace yourself!
Before
I was a word,
I was a sound.
Before
I was a sky,
I was a ground.
Before I was a stone, I was a hill.
Before I was a wheel, I was a will.
Before I was a birth, I was a kill.
Before I was a wash, I was a filth.
Brace yourselves!
