That's what being shy feels like. Like my skin is too thin, the light too bright. Like the best place I could possibly be is in a tunnel far under the cool, dark earth. Someone asks me a question and I stare at them, empty-faced, my brain jammed up with how hard I'm trying to find something interesting to say. And in the end, all I can do is nod or shrug, because the light of their eyes looking at me, waiting for me, is just too much to take. And then it's over and there's one more person in the world who thinks I'm a complete total waste of space.
The worst thing is stupid hopefulness. Every new party, every new bunch of people, and I start thinking maybe this is my chance. That I'm going to be normal this time. A new leaf. A fresh start. But then I find myself at the party, thinking, Oh, yeah. This again.
So I stand on the edge of things, crossing my fingers, praying nobody will try to look at me in the eye. And the good thing is, they usually don't.

You could just hold them, couldn't you? You could sit close to them, nestle into them so you could hear the machine of them churning away. You could press your ear against that person's back, listening to the rhythm of them, knowing that you were both made of the exact same stuff.

İnsanları izlemek zevkli bir hobi ama bunu yaparken dikkatli olmanız gerekiyor. İnsanların onları izlediğinizi fark etmelerine izin veremezsiniz. Eğer sizi yakalarlarsa size birinci sınıf bir suçluymuşsunuz gibi davranırlar. Belki de bu konuda haklılardır. Belki de insanların görmenizi istemediği şeyleri görmeye çalışmak bir suç olarak kabul edilmeli.
