Kites catch breezes

They soar high in the sky.

But something catches them,The bratty child holding the string

Stopping the kite

From flying high

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We're reserved

We're quiet

We shield ourselves

From the outside world

We're dark

Like the end of a neverending tunnel

We're mysterious

Like jumping shadows out of the corner of you eye

We're relaxed

Like the slow strides of the ocean

We're aloof

We're a little too thoughtful

We have pools of emotions

Locked up tight

We do these things

Because nobody asked

So we never bothered to explain

We're not enigmatic by choice

But by adaptation
