Shy.
Always have been,
Always will be—
According to my classmates.
What comes with being the quiet girl?
Shocked looks when something 100% innocent is said;
Shocked looks when something not 100% innocent is said—
Oh my gosh, I talked!
“You’re blushing” heard time and time again—
I understood you the first time!
Not enough confidence to be the loud one—
I don’t need to be to be loud 24/7!
“Let’s all stare at Rianne so her face will turn red!”—
Thanks, I definitely appreciate the attention!
So maybe I’m not the loudest person, but
Does that have to mean I’m shy?
