Sitting nowhere but the corners, <br />reading books, drawing faces; <br />walked only with one or two, <br />a favored time when I was shy. <br /> <br />A heart thickens, skin roughs; <br />smile I must for names multiply, <br />to be kind I must, to please I must, <br />that time when I've been noticed.<br /><br />Melanie Agua<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/when-i-was-shy/
