Eccedentesiast

I'm a quiet person by nature
And often people think of me as strange,
a clumsy, introverted creature
who they wish could for once change.
I might look quiet and calm
but the thoughts spiral I'm trapped in making it feel like a storm,
I crave solitude because I'm too drained to explain
That each storm leaves me with crippling pain.

great write. 'break free and live the person you are for what you are!' is how I look at life.

I am also an introvert, I crave solitude, and I understand the feeling of being drained by too much social interaction and explanation. I like the way you communicated this in poetry. Loved your title too! ~ John
