Who am I?

 I have always been shy,

 And I have always wondered why,

 Why was it so hard to be me?

 One question that I have been asked and I have questioned myself

Who am I?

I am shy, wonderful, respected and I am motivated.

Why can't I just step out of my comfort zone and conquer my fears on my own?

I can easily take my imaginary crown, and make my way to my throne,

but this is the real world.

What is so bad about communicating with people around me?

Why is it so hard to say hello to another person,

I do not why, nor have I ever been certain.

Am I afraid of the judgement, or am I afraid of saying the wrong thing?

Have I kept myself from seeking new adventures?

I know for sure, that I know who I am,

 and who I portray myself to be,

Another face in the crowd that is waiting to be seen.

 I am just a sixteen year old girl, preparing myself to face the world,

I am ready for the things that will be thrown my way, and I hope to watch

My fears slowly fade away.

Who am I?
