Not so much shy

As socially awkward,

I'm a poet and a nerd,

I feel like when I speak

I'm never heard,

A voice in the crowd,

Cut across, hushed down,

By all the others, more

Interesting and popular,

Know how to say

The right things to make

Others listen and stay,

Whereas I'm a passing hi

At the best of times.

I'm different to

All the other girls,

I was the only goth at school,

Now I'm just me,

Whatever that may be,

But it's not the norm,

I know that for sure.

I tend to make jokes,

Mess around, play the fool,

Try to seem cool;

Inside I'm dying a slow death,

From trying to socialise;

I'm a mess!
