Shyness Poems

Similarities of shrub and bride

Oh, my dear touch -me-not plant,                                                 

My Shyness Turned into social anxiety

Be quiet so you won’t be heard anymore. You might have heard this phrase growing up. Why do people think it’s their job to silence others and stop them from speaking freely?

Every spoken word should be heard, like a loud ringtone from a cell phone that signals someone is calling. Everyone deserves to be heard.

My

Suffered Shyness

Wait on my reply,
I suffer from being shy.
What does that imply?
Don’t kiss and tell,  I may die!
Just laugh and cry, just laugh and cry.
Still I should give us a try.
So..you wanna come by?

I'm at the entrance of you

I'm at the entrance of you,
and I don't know what to do.
I don't know where to begin
to try to find my way in
without making a disqualifying miscue.

Romantic Love

Childhood Love

Childhood Love (Villanelle)

I remember that glorious day when we were young,
We played together and danced through time and space,
If only I expressed my loving thoughts with my tongue.

Our childhood love was written on the pulse next to the lung,
Your eyes shone, dazzled and glistened with grace,
I remember that glorious day when we were young.

You stood

The Propsal

Through a wild valley 
We wandered 
Slow...
Except for our breath 
I , all to myself
In a panic,
Less frightened
By what would be called
Death.
My companion- 
Is likewise , too nervous, 
And panting in "secret"
Dismay:
And now I know
We are lovers, 
Abashed, shame-faced
In the heat of
An expectant day. 
He, in all tune to my thinking
Has gently taken my hand,

Shyness is a Flower or a Squirt Gun

Not sure yet, I slowly turn to the sound of a familiar voice. 
Yours maybe?
It has been three years since the social dance of co-workers and mingling - inevitable small talk. 
Three years ago, this was a not so foreign path. 
Is it too much all at once?
These long office corridors can be home
versus the

Shyness

The moon’s cheeks above
turned red like a pretty rose.
The star winked at her.

Special Feeling

They're yours
For you
Don't dartton
You're draiuve

Sure you

Come S'arken
You're crasei

Faith and Hope Overcome Dyslexia

Can't tie shoes. Can't read aloud. Can't memorize Latin.
IQ test, panic, shyness. Confidence goes missing.

A corner turned. Ask, and you will receive.
College, city planner, romance, graduation.

Paradise lost. War drums. "You are hereby ordered to report."
Fear and dread. Grab your guns. Invasion.
Many rockets fired, crashing all around.
Deliverance! Cheers on homeward flight abound.
"Baby killer! How justify?" Keep

Some People Call Me Prof

Some people call me Prof
But with laughter round it off,
Some garnish it with cough;
Their loyal but amused hats doff;
Better than to at me scoff…

The most shy cease to be coy,
The heart cruel games would buoy
Shyness in any case some ploy
By he who could with another toy:
By some Ray about to cajole a Roy;
My Prof Nickname,

Shyness

Shyness
An asset or a curse?
I wear it on my cheeks in the form of pink blotches

Shyness
Something to revere or overcome?
I keep my voice silent, while loud angry ones speak

Shyness
Does it have to do with personality or self-worth?
I ask myself this question internally, keeping quiet.

Shyness

Shyness! 
I professed to be pardoning. 
I was advancing in seeing an astute man. 
There may, in any case, be different perplexing concerns. 
What else? the heaviness of the breeze all over my face.
Furthermore, the inertia leaves mud scars. 
Moreover, my heart is blurred. 
Is your conduct alike mine? 
Bow her head, she said. 
I

Shy Me

SHY ME

I long to be free
From cages in me
That hold me tightly
Can't try to pretend
To be unfettered

I long to love
Sweet mourning doves
Playful coo blissed
To open heart’s kiss

I long cause
I'm alone
And have pause

To be
Freely

Me
