They think I'm rude
It's apparent in their eyes
My lack of words
Staring down at thighs
They think I'm rude
I never get a chance
To prove myself more
To direct their glance
They think I'm rude
"But I'm trying!" I say
No matter my effort
My words just decay
They think I'm rude
But they don't see
Every living moment
I try to be me
