An Introvert's Predicament
I dont know why
But everytime i try
To speak, i sigh
It's not that i'm shy
The words just die
And on my smiles, i rely
To convey and reply.
But with kids, i cant deny
It's not as weird and dry
'cause they are not as sly
Neither judge nor pry.
Might seem mighty and high
And my smile, wry
But its really all a lie
As i try hard not to cry.
I'm not trying to defy
Any rules but to imply
Beneath this facade, underlie
Timid, but good traits of an ally.
So please in your life, apply
and also kindly comply
When you meet someone as i
Dont just wave goodbye.
