I'm shy.
I'm tongue tied.
My hands struggle to type.
My bottom lip quivers.
My body shakes
(and not in the good way).
I can't eat,
tie my shoe,
just relax or
make the first move.
I'm always first to text you
with shame,
but masquerading
and gray.
A noctural opportune,
cold,
******,
bound,
seduced,
a freak —
your flavor of the weak.
And when conversation skips a beat, sad pride rests between.
