I am not good with words
My speech lacks eloquence
My gestures, movements, clouded by my insecurity
I walk too quickly
and hold myself too high
I am not good with words
You smirk and wonder why I even try

Close my eyes
In my mind it is clear
Only then can I truly say
'Yes, this is Me. Take it or leave it. I'll never be yours'
For even if I were good with words
Fluent in your language
I would still
stand on
my own

So throw away your judgements and misconceptions
They will not matter to me in the end
Your silent condemnation only noise noise noise to
my weary ears, I turn away

Take a good look in the mirror
Maybe then you'll see
the truth
