dear self,


although you are shy,

sheepishly following the others,

bowing your head in respect,

(or is it in fear?)

averting your gaze onto the plain walls,

you have to be confident.


because once you recognise your bravery,

have confidence in speaking to others,

dismiss the fear of judgement,

and just be yourself,

you are not bad as you think you are.


the people around you will willingly talk to you,

they were just waiting for you to say something

as you were waiting for them to speak to you.


hey,

believe in yourself more often.

it got you so far this year,

don't lose that streak.


don't let fear stop you from diving into new opportunities.

A/N: 

gosh here's a little rant but honestly i get so fed up w myself sometimes for missing my shot at speaking to new people. fortunately, i was able to meet those people the very next day and i became more assertive of myself. i'm generally p closed and introverted but throughout this year, i've become more social and i'm really glad. so please, to everyone out there who is shy, introverted, anti-social or all of the above:  don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone!! you can learn so many new things when you mix with new people, and you can gain some really good friends :)
