The Drawbacks of Being a Wallflower

Barely seconds into something, already hooked. Why question anything if you know your stuff? You know best that it’s easy to be overlooked, Especially when you’re a diamond in the rough. Undiscovered diamonds are beautiful no less, Though nobody looks, for it seems a time waste, It didn’t catch the eye, the moment won’t press, Still there sits a wonderful creation, ever chaste. Seemingly distant, yet inside shines with allure, If not an established masterpiece it is known, The unfamiliar treasure has naught to reassure, The hallucination of becoming a precious stone. All the treasured pieces and items universally, Either tell a great tale, or will fetch a fine price. The wallflower diamond untold commercially, And without a story, could be mistaken for ice.
