Here’s my attempt at an Introverted and/or Extroverted Poem:

“INFJ Quandary”

I like to be near the others,
but they do also wear me out.
I love my sisters and brothers,
and, you know, all of the others
with all their fathers and mothers,
but let there never be a doubt:
I like to be near the others,
but they do also wear me out.
