Inflammet nomen meum animam tuam.

Her eyes were like fireflies. They burned intensely like a compact campfire, the brown logs faded to grey and altogether ashed. Blazes licked at the sky, gambled with the breeze, breathed its heat down your neck. Florid, her make-up and lashes and shy looks failed to hide empressement or devovere. Her momentary glances of her kindle would follow concentrically, a little farther beyond her hidden nest each time, going on an unexpected adventure. You noticed her flame. Why couldn't you see though how her eyes were like fireflies dancing in the night? Flashing in and out of focus, her frequency is subtle, but maybe when you stare long enough โ€” you could also see her smile. @laureen-littlefield

You think you're an introvert because you like being alone, but maybe it's not about solitude. Maybe it's about peace. Maybe it's the quiet you've fought so hard to protect. Maybe it's the safety of your own company, after being around too many people who made you feel like too much or not enough. You smile differently around people who bring you calm. You speak more. You laugh louder. You come alive in rooms where your soul doesn't shrink. You're not afraid of connection. You're just tired of surviving it. So don't confuse your boundaries with isolation. Don't confuse your quiet with disinterest. You're not closed off. You're just waiting for someone who feels like home, not a battlefield.
