A Voice

Let me tell you something

I'm going to say it

for all those like me.

The boys and girls

who are shy.

We're easy to point out. The ones in the

corner who won't

speak up.

You look at us.

Judge us.

You'd be amazed

to find all the

shy boys and girls

have a voice

dying to be heard.

We bottle up

our feelings and

our thoughts.

We lock away our voices. We let people

push us around.

Our voices screaming

wanting to come out.

We hide.

But eventually we'll learn

to speak.

I wrote this poem in about Five minutes. Me and my mom had a talk. We talked about my shyness and how I do bottle my thoughts and feelings up. This poem shows my thoughts after.
