Vow of Silence

Never can say anything right;
Two left feet in the social light;
Look out of place in fancy clothes;
Stumble in heels with pointed toes;
Don't fit in high society,
Due to lack of propriety.
So dress me down, to my status,
Because there is no amount of practice,
Too much time and effort to spend,
That will fix my graceless trends.
Pretty face that's out in space
Some might think that's a waste.
But I can't change who I am,
Not that anyone gives a damn.
I try and try to be what I am not,
Who I am is someone I forgot
I can't keep my tongue still;
If I don't, perhaps someone else will.
They take the voice of man's best friend
Will they, to me, the same service rend?
For if you leave my voice free,
Then you might be the one leaving me.
I’m just not a part of your world.
I wasn’t meant to be that kind of girl.
I can make you happy when we are alone,
But are you proud to bring me home?
