Fitting in..

Reaching out towards the world I felt,

Will I be able to fit in with it,
Will it see me the way I am or the way it wants to see,
Have I the charm to enchant your elite,
The beauty, to have men fall at my feet,
The demeanor, the wit to sway you my way,
The intelligence to hear you and say what to say,
I doubted my ability to mix and converse with sense,
I second guessed myself, oh! more than once,






I reached out to a book, lying on the shelf..


I felt like myself....
