Another acrostic

So, let’s start again… we could be friends!

I’ll try to tamp down my exuberant, Extrovert eagerness

Lead in quietly… tread softly… tip toe like a timid mouse

Everything okay?

No answer!

Cringing, I scuttle away… clearly, things will be no different today!

Echoes of previous stillborn attempts, ring silently as I retreat in defeat ... for now.

Written for the Moment of Silence Challenge

Another acrostic poem to keep the one above company!
