The Shy Kid

The Shy Kid

A Poem by shawnt5604

do you ever wonder
what the shy kid is thinking
his mind doesnt just stand still
because he's not speaking

 

some say he's dumb
others just think he's not cool
but did you ever wonder
if he really had more to say
than anyone else in school

 

why don't you say hi
you might be surprised
but most turn away
and find somewhere else funner to play

 

and there the shy kid still sits
waiting for someone to interact
in fact
he's got a lot he's waiting to say
just waiting for the right day

 

tomorrow comes
and there the shy kid sits
impatient with his wits
he grits
his teeth
but still no words
come from his lips
still the shy kid sits...
