She's quiet

Yes she's quiet

But not by choice

But because,

No one cared enough to listen to her

Because of the conversation cuts that only happen to her

Because her feelings were invalidated

Because she was always the perfect kid

The strong one,

Who knew how to handle her emotions

Emotions that would always overflow but she didn't show

Why?

Because she was a strong girl

She's quiet because conversations scared her

Because it would remind her of the last awkward conversation

She's quiet because she was always the comforter and not the one who was comforted

She's quiet because she was always the last option

She's quiet because she's desperate

That if she talked out her feelings then she would even lose her option title

She's quiet, for she's tired
