Wallflower

Shrinking in a corner,
Pressed into the wall;
Do they know I'm present,
An I here at all?

Is there a written rule book,
That tells you how to be-
All the right things to talk about-
That everyone has but me?

Slowly I am withering-
A flower deprived of sun;
Longing to belong,
Somewhere or someone.
