During the week
I play the extrovert
My role is people
And I perform
All the energy
I let them drink from me
Till my soul is like a storm
On the weekend
I am the introvert
Hiding so happily
In my cave
Rest with poetry
Creative camaraderie
And I find my soul is saved
So my thanks to you
Who I read and who
In your generosity
Read me
For in words and thoughts
Is the sweetest life
And the best way to be free.

My own feelings exactly!
Thank you!! š
This is lovely! š And we often have at least two side to our character, or sometimes even more. The phrase ‘All the world’s a stage’ comes to mind. But it’s nice to lay the worldly character down as much as you can and retreat to your cave – I love that bit! (I have one too! :D)
Thank you so much! š

I’m glad to find such perception, Helen, and I look forward to reading more.
Thank you so much!! š
