Im always afraid to speak up

Cause of all the problems it could cause

My friends do

I dont

Im to scared too, im afraid to be judged

Im afraid to make a fire

That might burn and burn me too

I take chances

I make my choices

I try my best

But to me i stand back

Cause im afraid to start the chaos

That might burn and burn me too

I try not to say stupid things

I try not to make people mad

I try not to be awkward

But when there is problems i back away,

Scared to cause more

Cause that might burn and burn me too

When something hurts me i dont say anything

I dont wanna be awkward and mean

So when i stand up it might burn

I get yelled at when i dont speak

But everything might hurt me after if i do

Cause that might burn and burn me too

No one usually gets it

Will it hurt me

Will it hurt them

Will it cause problems

Will it, goes in my head spinning

Round and round

So i dont

i hide its fine

I get judged when i speak up

So i just am a bundle of fire when im mad

That cant let out

I might get yelled at

Might get punished

It lights and lights till it bursts

The speak up that always burns - by me
