Listen to poem:

Best Friends With An Extrovert

Yes I may be loud at times but I speak quietly with you
Yes I may appear nonchalant but care deeply about you
Just because I'm social doesn't make everyone my friend
I may have love for everyone but only for you my back will bend
I may share things with others that may appear deep
But the details and shameful things I give to you to keep
With others I enjoy conversation and chemistry
With you I enjoy the security of our built history
I may enjoy the limelight but I also need you by my side
Extroverts can tell who comes along just for the ride
I may at times appear to not take any one seriously
You're the one I'll fight to keep and would do so fiercely
Extroverts appear careless but they have insecurities
Being a social chameleon isn't their only ability
Just as an introverted person doesn't let just anybody in
We're the same, but when we do we're in it till the end.
