Wallflower
Never have I spoken
A word out of place
I am the graceful wallflower
Over your fireplace
I watch the embers
Cracklin' about
Their burning touch
Is what I am afraid of
I am afraid to be noticed
Never seen, nor heard
I fear one day I will
Be painted over though
Maybe I am insane
With these emotions bubbling out
Maybe I need a clinic
Or to fully wilt down
"It will make you better
You don't have to be upset"
But I would rather not be empty
Every pill makes me fall
Without a net
So I am mentally unstable
I really could careless
Because now that I see the darkness
I am ready to fight
This battle and the next
I am ready to prevail
I needed empowerment
Thank God I found it
