INTROVERTS

it is about the personality of introverts like me. this aims at letting others understand introverts and that introversion is not negative but rather a type of personality with (+) & (-) attributes

State of alone-ness
To others a mess!
They can't stand it
But to a-tee you fit!

Silence and space
A sacred place.
To be and be still
Requires a lot of will.

You live in the head
And don't want to lead.
A good strategist
In the sidelines you choose to exist.

For, when mixed to many
A depleted energy.
Need to recharge
In a space that is large
Enough to wonder
What things to tinker.

Balance is needed.
Go out and befriend.
Be a good team player
and a good dancer.

Show them what you've got
Confidence is a lot.
They think you're shy
They'll know it's a lie.

Many people own a skewed view of those who are introverts, which I'm reminded of when I read this poem. However, the more I think about it--Introverts tend to be brilliant individuals who can be a little bit analytically. Although, it is simply because they tend to be more aware of their surroundings and themselves. You also including four lines that changed the whole mood and broke the barrier of that "introvert" stereotype with your second to last piece. "Balance is needed, go out and befriend, be a good team player, and a good dancer." That was beautiful--as it reflected that there are more to it than just being on the sidelines. Showing them not as a silhouette, but just as unique as everybody else.
