What exactly
Does it mean
To be called
A disgrace?
The opposite of grace?
But I am Grace.
What does it mean?
Nobody really knows.
Grace is undefinable,
A mystery.
Yet I am called the opposite
of what nobody
Can define.
Truth is,
You just don't know
Who I am.

My name is Grace, and people often call me "disgrace" even though nobody knows what it means to be Grace.
