Shy Girl

You can change your body

but not your mind

that confident girls still there

she’s just harder to find

You’ve lost all the weight

but don’t want anyone to know

your layers of hate

you can’t let go

Isolation has become your friend

your comfort and your warmth

your afraid to bend

in case someone taunts

When you start to realise

it’s what you see that matters

when the cloud lifts from your eyes

their hold on you shatters

Smile and know you’re gorgeous

they’ll envy your confidence

the shy girl will feel nauseous

humbled in your presence

Ease her out of her shell

she made a friend today

a new dress she looks swell

her crush looked her way
