My friend, SoxyA Poem by Liz AlexanderSome days being social is hard, meet my friend Soxy and see the craziness he causes me to act.It happens in an instant
My friend has appeared again ITs not a person really more like a mode I can be in a place talking, Next thing I know stepping into another room I have lost my voice My good friend Soxy strikes again Soxy is my good friend Social Anxiety When it appears, I tend to wander Either on foot or in my car When I wander I am never sure where I am going Soxy sometimes cramps my style If I even have one It either pulls me into a place where its hard to speak or if I do I talk too much I have learned that it can seem rude And its not like I don't want to talk to you I lose all courage to talk Even in saying hi I just start to wander These moments I am fighting within There is something inside screaming to talk But my courage is gone And my face is blank Not very inviting This is something I am working on To beat soxy out of my life Soxy has been in and out of my life For a while It knows me so well So meet my friend, Soxy © 2017 Liz AlexanderAuthor's Note
