I bite my lip to keep from offering my input. The temptation is so strong that I almost cannot hold back. Sweat glistens on my forehead and I tap my fingers impatiently on my desk. 'That's it. Just do it.' I tell myself. I start to raise my hand, but as I open my mouth to speak, I'm cut off by another. They suggest a brilliant plan and everyone ooh's and aah's. I sigh. I pick at my cuticles. I was too late. Again.
I absolutely love this poem. It describes every single shy person at a school, including me. I can relate to this so well.
