Shyness
It reveals itself freely without rationale,
a natural inheritance, untraditional.
Shown to strangers, yet hidden from friends.
Revealed in dangers, concealed in amends.
The softer the approach, the easier it leaves,
but when given reproach, it's worn on the sleeves.
There is no fear to show this to most,
but it's withheld from those who are close.
