I never liked sharing my feelings,

This will always be my downfall.

Always keeping them to myself ,

For as long as I can recall.

If you get to know me you might think I am cold and detached,

Even though i'm like this, it doesn't mean I am unscratched.

I never liked sharing my feelings

I am labelled "The Iceprincess"

She has no emotions

She is a narcissist,

I just try my best to avoid commotions.

Pretend they don't exist.

I am an introvert, people can be scary,

When I try to engage, I quickly become overwhelmed and weary.

So when I don't answer, it's not cause i'm rude,

When I walk when someone is talking, it's not in hopes of being perused.

I never liked sharing my feelings

Not even to my confidant

Instead of saying things like; I love you or I'm hurt...I will remain nonchalant.

I know it's not good and I should be more interactive,

I know what to do to be more proactive.

But I can't control the panic, when I think about what to do,

I can't control how my heart starts racing or the scared child that comes through.

I rather go back to my corner, hidden behind my laptop screen,

There I can be safer, peaceful and unseen.
