It isn't the right word. But I just can't find the one that will fit to describe me. I thought it might be right until I googled it... "A shy person" does not begin to describe me. I'm not angry at it, my shyness, but it frustrates me so much every day. I sit inside my own head Screaming! Screaming at myself, Screaming out what I just want to say But I Can't! Screaming at my head to think, think of something, anything! My mind is full of thoughts but I'm stuck sitting with my best friend in silence, my thoughts pounding against my skull but not one breaks free. I don't know the word to say to sum that up. Maybe there isn't one because it is only me trapped in my thoughts wanting to break out, wanting to speak out. Maybe that's why it's so frustrating. I feel alone inside myself and I just want to get out.
