Are you referring to the Messages main page, where you see the message list? At the top of the page, beneath the battery icon, you should see the box with the pencil. Is that what you are NOT seeing? If so, try powering the phone off and back on again. Or, you can reset the phone, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release.
