The wallflower.
They're not popular, but important.
Still doesn't mean you can step on them like a doormat.
They're shy, but outgoing.
Still doesn't mean you can't stop them from growing.
They remain on the sidelines, but understand you.
Still doesn't mean you can't think about them too.
They become a wonder wall.
You become completely infatuated with them.
They're all you think about.
They finally give you a reason to smile.
You love them for all they are.
Then you realize it's always been the wallflower.


The author's comments:
The movie "Perks of Being a Wallflower" inspired me to write this piece. I hope people will understand it's ok to be on the sidelines and to be a shy person, but don't let that ruin your social life.
