Wallflower
Don't be discouraged because I'm quiet, secretive, and lonely
Hiding in plain sight, watching life pass me by
No longer looking through those rose colored glasses
My strength is gone, my soul shattered
My world is taken away
Betrayed by life emotions, and illness
The heart feels empty and afraid, hardening to any emotion
Knowing there is no one to trust
New thoughts are unwinding
Suggesting a will to survive, to be successful, to be productive
Hearing my heart speak outloud
Hoping someone will look beyond the 'wallflower.

CHAPTER 15 I pulled up in front of Sandy’s a little early, so I texted Becca again and left a message for Sharon, hoping she had a good day and I’d see her tomorrow. Two cars pulled into Sandy’s driveway. I don’t know why I was surprised to see another man with her. We’d been apart for two years and I certainly didn’t waste any time getting back on the horse.
