Wallflower

She divides herself 
And hides herself
From the reminders 
Of all she cannot have. 
She stays apart from 
The laughter. 
Not privy to the jokes
And banter. 
She stands on the wall
And waits. 
All dressed up with nowhere to go. 
Everybody's friend. 
Nobody's concern. 
She contains herself. 
Entertains herself
With doodles on the page
Where words should be.
