Will I be loud?- a poem
Will I be loud?
image by @rare_rascal
I am mostly
an extrovert
Isolated in
my mind
Customer
service is my thing
But friends
are hard to find
I write on
the walls
And untether
relationships
I flow with
water
But I am
alone on the ship
I can read
the room
But never
my own mind
I perplex
myself
And drown
in time
I ask for
what I want
I am
terrified of hearing “No”
What if all
love bestowed on me
Was a mere
pretention show
I have
faith I am special
But what if
that’s a lie
Everyone
says I’m a leader
But
sometimes I’m shy
I dance in
the rain
I’m anxious
and charismatic
I’m
brimming with bravado
But I’m
also scared of it
My
potential’s a fact
But success
just a vision
Sometimes
it’s all about
Taking that
decision
Will I make
it through
Will my
parents be proud
Will I cry
away
Or will I
be loud?
