Wallflower

Life was a ball full of laughter and lace.

I stood all alone feeling quite out of place.

The music was loud and the people danced fast.

I was frozen watching everyone pass.

~~~~

Insecurity always held me back.

Certain, was I, that they would all laugh.

Yet, one day, Someone came.

With eyes so tender, He called me by name.

~~~~

There was something about the way He looked at me.

He saw the woman He had created me to be.

Suddenly, I found myself following Him close

no longer content to hide in the shadows.

~~~~

I was never the belle of the ball.

I was the wallflower nobody saw.

Then Christ came and asked me to dance

and my poor heart never stood a chance.
