I'm not shy

Trapped in my own brain, wrapped in a thousand what-ifs like links in a chain.

I'm not 'depressed' at least that's not what i'd call it, just feel like maybe a few dollar bills short of a full wallet.

I'll be better again, i know that for a fact. I'll smile at at you walking and you'll smile right back.

I'm not shy just cuz i don't say hi. HI! i want to shout it, but my brain right now, it's just clouded.

This isn't how i wanna be, if i had a choice please believe i'd be more friendly. Though sometime soon again i'm sure i will be - friendly. That is if you still want to talk to me.

If i don't say hi, it's not cuz i'm rude or playing hard to get. Ask my friends, i'm not a prude even though i haven't kissed you yet.

A week from now we'll kiss and you'll say "finally", but for right now I'm just more apt to be shy cuz i'm not comfortable with me.
 
I really like how each line is an affirmation of itself with each one finding more depth than the one before.
 
*applauds* *gets chills* i like your poetry. im thinking about writing some, the ability to express how i feel sounds so empowering.
