An Uncomfortable Stairwell
I am merely presented as a kid of catastrophe
Swallowed by fear of my own appearance and actions
the words I say
the words I want to say
All based off of people's reactions
I am purely an uncomfortable stairwell
Built by words that are thought by others
Awkward
Daunted
Anxious
Muffled

Internally, this is false to me
I see myself as something limitless
the ideas I have
the curiosity that strikes me
The internal me I cannot express
If I could only show what I am capable of
Built by words that define me within
Astute
Dynamic
Attentive

There really is no need
For me to mask my true self
My shell may continue to fear and cower
As I collect dust on the shelf
