Public Speaking


Sweat dripping

legs shaking

eyes unfocused

words stuttered

 

Eyes piercing

attention on me

judging glares

laughing scare

 

That was what I seen

wasn't the way it'd been

overthinking

slowly sinking

 

Curious eyes

reassuring smiles

amused laughter

sympathetic stares
