I’m horrible at starting conversations
Because I hate talking
About myself
Because I feel selfish
And I’m just overall awkward
And don’t know what to say
I’m shy
And I love it when
People start conversation for me
Because then it makes it easier for me
To get into it
I wish I was more outgoing
I wish I was more talkative
With people I don’t know that well
I wish I wasn’t as socially awkward
But I am
It’s just me
There’s nothing I can do
Or want
To change
And if you don’t enjoy being around me,
You don’t need to pretend
To be my friend
I’m fine
I have a group
Of really good friends
That I know have my back


So don’t **** with me
I like to think of myself as shy to the outside world and feisty with my really close friends and family. It’s like a secret that you only get to see when you prove that you have my back.
