The Exception

I like being alone, a truth I've always known, Through quiet moments, seeds of thought are sown. My introvert's solace, a comfort deep and true, A world within, just me, and peaceful view. But that is why I knew you were different, from the start, A sudden shift, a yearning in my heart. Because for the first time ever, in this solitary space, When I met you, time seemed to lose its pace. I wanted someone else's company, close and near, More than my own, dispelling every fear.
