I Hate Being Shy

Shyness feels like 
solitary confinement. 

It isn't cute; 
it's a setback that makes 
me feel like committing 
masochistic violence. 

Stuck in silence, 
ultra violet, 
mental riot, 

Nobody likes a 
shy guy, and the
shy guy doesn't like 
being shy. 

If I had the courage 
to scream, maybe 

my
life 
wouldn't 
be 
so 
quiet.
