Today's word is "ambivert" ... One whose personality type is intermediate between extrovert and introvert. (Dictionary.com)
Ambivalent
I like to be friendly to those that I meet,
To shake hands and talk to them on the street,
But later that day, I might curl up with a book,
Happy alone in my own little nook.
As much as I care for the welfare of others,
That's how I give in to my very own druthers,
Content to just think of me and myself,
And put all the others away on a shelf.
If this is selfish, I'm sure I don't know,
But it's sometimes exhausting to put on a show.
This is the ambivert's inside-out life,
Coming or going, with chances, it's rife.
