An introvert craves your time. We don't need much, just bring us your heart. Just bring us your closeness, your unhinged rib cage, your dreams and your aspirations. Bring us the key to the world you hold within you, and we will explore it. We will always explore it.
We crave your understanding. We crave the ability to be who we are - the over thinking, daydreaming, messy hearted human beings, who have the loudest thoughts tucked beneath their skin.
We crave your distance. Trust me - if we love you, we love you, but we crave compassion, your space, because moments alone with our hopes and our dreams are just as important as the moments we spend with you. They are our strength. They are our comfort, our fuel.
But most of all, we crave your knowledge of us. We crave the way you see small things we do as declarations of our love. See, when we do extroverted things with you, when we come out with you and dance with you and laugh out loud with you, we want to know what that means. How we love seeing you happy. How it makes it all worth it, even if it makes us weary.
And when we invite you into our heads, when we show you our favourite dog eared books or cry in front of you while watching our favourite movie, when we share with you these extensions of who we are, and what shaped the very foundation of our souls, we want you to know what that means. How hard that is for us. How we try for you. How we will always try for you.
