Timidly

Grace loves not timid
When coming from hard sections
Living alongside peaceful
Arguments, timid
The world view keeps the water
Down to heartfelt realms under
Below the timid
Prospective leanings project
Grown aspects of love implied
Timidly, alone
She doesn’t know the real truth
Like the wind, harbors the hope
