Behind Myself



On the outside I am quiet

When an opportunity for me to say something comes up

I rarely take it

I am afraid of being judged

I am afraid of my insecurities

I would rather hide

People say it is easy to break out of the shell

I say it isn’t that simple

I dream of being the kind of girl who says what’s on her mind

No matter what

I want to shake myself sometimes

I want to scream out you only live once

Who cares if you get judged?

You cannot stop living your life because of fear

Life moves by you very fast and you need to enjoy every second

This is something I remind myself every day of my valuable life.

On the outside I am quiet

When an opportunity for me to say something comes up

I rarely take it

I am afraid of being judged

I am afraid of my insecurities

I would rather hide

People say it is easy to break out of the shell

I say it isn’t that simple

I dream of being the kind of girl who says what’s on her mind

No matter what

I want to shake myself sometimes

I want to scream out you only live once

Who cares if you get judged?

You cannot stop living your life because of fear

Life moves by you very fast and you need to enjoy every second

This is something I remind myself every day of my valuable life.
