I'M An Introvert

Don’t mistake my calm demeanor As being aloof or superior It is an aspect of my character. My mind is moving at 10,000 RPMs I hear what you say but I’m also 2,000 miles away I can’t help but to remember what didn’t happen yesterday I love all the people around me… sometimes, can’t they just go away? Juggling my thoughts as I walk away “Get Up! Dance!” some insist But this just gets me pissed My silence is not fright And I do not suffer from some blight I am not depressed or mad Stop asking if I’m sad! Knowing who we are keeps us sane Silence is ominous to the extrovert They need a score to act their part Their scene is action from the start My scene (to them) is a mystery Quiet shadows and light on the stage for me My role to be, or not to be I accept we are not the same The clear winter dawn lights my path Over plains, fields and ranges It guides my heart to a place of peace A journey that will never cease Calm and still, easy and truthful, well and good
