I am but a wallflower
I would rather anything
but socialize.
Day by day I feel myself
wither away,
with all my colours
drained.
Alas, there is no one.
No one who asks
if I am alright.
But then again, even if
they asked, I would say,
"I'm fine."
Thus is the life of this wall-flower,
yearning to have someone
who cares for them,
yet unwilling to act on
it.
Not a wallflower.
Just a flower on the wall.
A wall-flower.
