Under Pressure Poem by Ibrar Siddiqi

Shyness is a killer
turns a ion into a mouse
one person exposing me to feelings unknown.
take me safely from boredom
swept over by a powerful wave.
inside i am smiling.
but to others i wear a cloak.
protecting my emotions to save someone else.

I am who i am
Dont want to changing for anyone else.
Find the right lover - she'll love my warts and all.
I am under pressure to conform.
