Speak Up Girl

Quiet girl.
Shy girl.
Silly girl.
Blind girl.
Scarred girl.
Alone girl.
Unaccepted girl.
Feared girl.

Why so quiet?
Why so shy?
Why so silly,
and why so blind?
Why so scarred,
did the blade slip across your wrist?
Why so alone,
and why so unacceptable.
Why so feared,
are you really that scary?

But most of all girl.
Why not speak up?

So, my PE/Leadership teacher was being a but today, again. She got mad at me for not speaking up when she was calling role. I just raised my hand. And I suppose that that kind of inspired this.
