Are You Watching Me?

Are you watching me?

I think my face turns red

I can feel it burn in heat

And I’m all sweaty

Are you talking with me?

You ask me a question

My tongue moves eloquently

But my face is too rigid

Are you smiling?

I’m sorry I can’t do more than that

Why is it so hard for me?

To act naturally

When you’re around

I’m not who I really am

Not trying to be somebody else

But afraid to show myself

So are you watching me?

I’m sitting all alone

And I got nobody

Why don’t you come and near me?

But my lips are sealed

You’re passing me by

Why is it so hard for me?

To act naturally
