The Wallflower That Fade and Shine

i saw in the mirror, a reflection of mine
the wallflower that fade and shine
standing atop in the war against my fears
demolished the walls, became a people pleasure 
made friends that spew out poison 
nothing good came from letting pretenders into my life
took off that mask and enjoyed my own company 
now i have someone, a true friend of mine
