Let me be

I am someone who is scared to talk,

Someone who is scared to walk.

I am someone who likes being alone,

Because that means I don't have to socialise.

I am someone moved last year,

and hasn't made friends since.

I am someone who used to be so friendly and outspoken,

loud and energetic, fun to be around, and had so many friends.

But I moved to America and now I'm scared to talk,

I'm scared to talk because everyone is judgemental, 

I'm scared to talk because everyone seems to hate me,

even though I haven't done anything.

I want to speak up and be heard,

But no one will listen to me,

They will just glare and walk away.

But no more, I will not be quiet,

I will be heard, and people will want to listen,

My stories should be shared,

I have many to tell,

many that are fun and unique,

and interesting to hear.

I used to speak and voice my thoughts,

about anything really,

and I will do that again.

Let me be.
