My body tells me to move
yet I stay still
My lungs tell me to sing
yet I stay quiet
My hands tell me to create
yet they are too busy
caring for others

Timid is a word
that keeps resonating
in my mind's heart

Timidity is a state
that freezes
my heart
Fear causes timidity
timidity causes sadness
and anger

Timidity is a choice.
Today I create
Later today
I WILL sing.

Forums like this
and kind words
and love
to and
from others
help me to feel
like I can
and then
I will.
