Thoughts on my poem?

Home More advice Art, Writing & Literature

I just wrote this poem about myself. What do you think?

That shy girl

I miss you kayla, where do you hide when these people come around? I wish I knew the way to show you out But once again I am stuck Inside myself I have so much to say at times But still I remain with duck tape over my mouth

I want to run, so far where no one can call me shy I want to scream, at them and show them but I remain mute I want to let go, and reveal who I really am And most the time I just want to join in laughter And become more like them More like the girl hiding inside

I don't want to stay mute forever But I don't know how to press play And every time I open my mouth the words get lost on the way Maybe if they could see who I really am Or if I could find myself They would acknowledge me And they would like me, I think They would talk to me and I would talk back I would laugh at their jokes And once, I would be there in the room But still, I remain invisible
