Just Because...
Just Because
 Just because I’m quiet
  
 Don’t ignore me when I speak
  
 Don’t think I’m uninteresting
  
 Don’t presume anything
  Just because I’m quiet
  
 It doesn’t mean I can’t be fun
 
 It doesn’t mean I can’t be outgoing
 
 It doesn’t mean I can’t be a leader
 Just because I’m quiet
  
 People who don’t know me think I’m shy
  
 People who know me wish I were
  
 But I’m a gem worth being discovered
 Just because I’m quiet
 
    I’m not different
 
    I’m not alone
 
    I’m not silent
 Just because I’m quiet—get to know me.
