Now you understand.
What an introvert can do.
During long off-hours
They practice. You
Size up the poem they wrote
To you as a quick note—
Not quite knowing
Where it is going.
You do like to talk.
But when you walk
With the introvert
Something happens to your mind.
The introvert is kind
Without meaning to be kind.
Their strange attention is new.
The introvert is doing something to you.
Books, music and movies
Were yours, but now you spill your beer
When the introvert comes near.
The introvert kisses you.
It’s a pleasant fear.
You will do nothing.
The introvert looks at you.
Nothing. Nothing.
