I’ll listen whenever you…

Have a story to share
Wish to rant out any problem
Obsess over a celeb
Tell me about your weekend
Talk about your favorite show
Sing random songs
Read a story aloud
Recite a line from a movie
Ask a question
Argue an opposing side
Laugh
Whisper
Cry
Call
Text
Tell a secret
Comment on something you like
Comment on something you hate
Call for my attention

Say what you want
Because I’ll always listen,
But I’ll never talk
Because random poems are much better than Life Ed homework :dummy:

We were doing personality types in Life Ed, so it made me think of how shy I am. I feel shy even around my friends sometimes. I figured I always listen rather than talk. And whenever it's my turn to add to the conversation or start a new conversation, I never know what to say and just keep quiet. I don't know how to talk to people, but I sure do know how to listen. So to repair my emotions, I started writing and this poem came along.

Hey, I like this! :D
Also, listening to people is very nice of you, and your friends should be grateful that they have you.
And don't worry, you will get more confident over time. Just try to work on it. Because you definitely should talk and share your feelings (with the right people).
