A blue flower
In a field of pink
Trying to be quiet
To be unnoticed
But in doing so
Covering up everything
That makes it what it is
Ignorant of itself
Focusing on others
Watching them
Studying them
To become another one
Of them
Untapped potential
Constantly hidden
Beauty worthy of envy
Always smothered
Happiness beyond belief
On the brink of disappearance
All because of one flower
That one ignorant conformist flower
The only beautiful blue flower
In a field of pink.

The real poem is longer. But I lost that. I hope you like my reflection on being a standout new kid-or at least, the part I memorized. :)

Thanks, Madison_R. I really appreciate it. I just wish I could find the real one.... it's better than this one.
