Why?

short poem

It happened again on this spot again,

Covering my face with my big clumsy arms,

Bending with my long lanky legs.



Oh why am I so scared of you?

The pigeons went coo coo,

But I went shoo shoo,

Afraid that they will pick on me.



Oh why am I so scared of love?

Not being able to say I love you,

Or not being able to hug you.

Standing still and still can't make a decision.



Afraid to wear such revealing clothes,

Afraid to each such foreign foods,

Afraid to meet other people,

Am I like a vampire who likes to hide in his old coffin?



Oh why do I have to go to school?

Oh why am I scared to show my face?

Oh why can’t I look people in the eyes?

Oh why am I such a fool.
