Drowning into a cloud of darkness

Sunday 19 th June 2011



Drowning.. Cloud of Darkness... A very dramatic title, right? Basically here I am talking about how it is so hard for me to escape one of my personality traits: being shy. 
I wrote it in 6th grade, when I was 11 years old.

There are things I can do,
that you do not know,
that no one knows.

There is lot's about me that no one knows,
only my sister knows.

Since all you girls can sing and dance and write,
you all get all the cheering,
Since "they say" I can not sing or dance or write,
I don't get any.

Many people always ask,
what are you good at?

Many people always ask all wierd things,
and stuff like that.

I am tired,
really tired.

I want them to know my truth.

The thing is, the shyness inside me,
totally blanks me out.

I can sometimes get out of it,
but it is always there,
and I always try getting rid of it,
but it's always deep inside me.

It's always there,
it haunts me down,
It makes me sad,
It makes me drown.

It makes me drown into a cloud of darkness,
a cloud I'm not able to get out of.
