Mind and heart <br />Working together <br />To cause this headache <br />Created from a weary mind <br />Being overburdened <br />Filled with <br />More than the mind can take <br />More than the heart can feel. <br /> <br />Mind and heart <br />Working together <br />For the greater good <br />The good of the greater? <br /> <br />You all look at me <br />And see just a girl <br />Just another one <br />With so many connections <br />(Not to the right things) <br />To the obscure <br />Mindless path. <br />Just a shadow of <br />What I used to be <br />Wallflower <br />Invisible. <br /> <br />Just a shadow <br />To you <br />But to me <br />The real thing. <br />I still think <br />And feel <br />The same way <br />As the wallflowers do. <br />Just now <br />Set in a different place <br /> <br />New connections you see <br />Old connections you don't <br />What I want <br />Is being blurred. <br />New connections you see <br />Old connections you don't <br />What do I need? <br />This headache <br />Burdening my heart. <br />Heartache <br />Headache <br />Heartache? Yes? <br />What do you know. <br />What I don't know. <br /> <br />Just please <br />Attempt to understand <br />My head hurts <br />More than my heart can take. <br />My heart hurts <br />More than my mind can know. <br />Attempt to understand <br />This broken plea <br />From the shadow <br />Of the wallflower <br />I used to be.<br /><br />Thamer Mager<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/shadow-of-a-wallflower-s-plea/
