Wallflower

Watching people like it’s sport
Amber smile the winning sort
Lovely lips repeat a joke
Laughs on cue as you hope
Fuchsia fears hidden well
Looking for exit despite sitting there
Onyx knight full of silver stars
Wishing to leave soon by car
Evening close to an end
Romantic night just begins

What a gorgeous acrostic. So well written and flows too seamlessly, i love so many lines in this especially “ Watching people like it’s sport Amber smile the winning sort“ maybe i am too a wall flower as sometimes i do that. “ Fuchsia fears hidden well“ deep . “ Onyx knight full of silver stars“ creative line too. You have a way with words dear karen. Pleasure reading this.
