(for quiet girls who don't know how to change)

don't.
you've spent your whole life like this and you don't know anything else. girls like you become forgotten. you've contented yourself with this thought already. you were born with an unsettling understanding that you'll always be you no matter how much you want to be her in order to get him because you were just not cutting it. you want to get out?
don't. 
you're already stuck inside yourself and bodies were not meant to open that way, not your's anyway.

do you remember when a person almost sat on you? you'd only seen something like that written for comic relief in sitcoms. you were meant to melt away. you were born to disintegrate. you have a long history of disappearing--your entire existence is a vanishing act.

girls with names like yours are meant to be forgotten on tongues, melting down throats, your life is a one hit wonder.

no one will wonder where you go because you left without a warning, without a trace.

no one will remember that face. no man is an island, but you aren't a man.

 when you feel like you need to change,
don't.
