I'm told to speak,
But then I'm ignored.
Am I wrong
For not speaking
And wrong
For listening
And taking notes
On how the vocal students
Are seen as the better students?
I'm not allowed
To allow
My mind to roam
With no limitation.
I have found
No way of the restoration
Of my creativity.
It's draining you see,
Always talking
No time for thinking,
No time for reading.
There's always a meeting,
Always group seating,
There's no time for seeding,
No time for weeding
Out these pointless meetings
Which seem unending.
There's no time for breathing
When there are so many I need to be seeing.
So many people speaking
Why can't I just be reading?
Why heed me when you are speaking?
You are leading.
Maybe I need treating
To be normal.
I'm having trouble
Exceeding at pretending
There's an extroverted being in me.
Silenced,
Underestimated,
Meeting judgment,
Misleading,
Misreading me.
That's a lot, you see.
Readers,
Thinkers,
Dreamers,
Believers.
Introverted leaders.
Quietly
Reading,
Seeking,
Dreaming,
Believing,
Leading.
So once in a while,
Please yield to those
Thinking silently.
