Embarrasment

Embarrassment is the most diabolical emotion of
them all
It feels like you have just been smacked in the face with a basketball
Your face goes red
You wish you never got out of bed
Everything goes silent but the giggles
Away everybody wiggles and riggles
Your mouth goes dry
You want to cry
It smells of the smelliest sock
Like you've just swallowed a rock
Your world is ending
Your heart stops
You wish you were pretending
But unfortunately, embarrassment is never ending.
