You just assume that we're shy
Some of us are, the others aren't

Pure Silence in our movements
Pure Silence when listening around but
Pure Madness running through our minds;
Waiting to burst through,

Polite in our actions but
Gutters in our mind
Smirking at a wrong worded sentence
While others just look on

We watch with a blank face,
In a land of our own
Dreaming of Randomness that wanders around
You may think you know us

If you could read minds then
You Assume Wrong.

I've always wandered what people think of quiet people..(i'm the quiet one in the class)..but this is how I feel when I'm in class, people don't be afraid of the quiet kids, they're really funny :)
