A Wallflower

All these years, she was baffled.

With the desire of being the best she could possibly be.

The monotony did not dampen her

Neither did the rebukes she faced.

She has somehow build herself a cocoon,

Safe and sound from the chaos within and out.

She being at par with the rest

Made her go through what she perhaps never wanted

But then she chose to come out of her shield

And move to a world where nobody thought she could fit in

She was taught things she did not ever imagine but chose this life.

Her unending dreams wake her up

And she no longer wants to be a wallflower.
