Little Lies

I thought I was an extrovert- 

I'm not. 

I can't talk to somebody unless they approach me first.

 So I don't correct when somebody says something that's wrong, 

I let them believe something that isn't true

 because I can't speak up for myself. 

That's a lie. I would speak up. 

But I've been taught not to because my opinion doesn't matter. 

Even if it's fact about myself.

 I used to be loud. 

And I still am,

 just only around certain people. 

The one time I corrected somebody 

when they said something wrong,

they didn't believe me; 

until somebody else backed me up. 

But I think they still hold a spot in their mind f

or something that was never true. 

Because they would rather try to believe a lie that they spent so long thinking was true-

 than admit they were wrong.
