You are unaware of my stare,

So wrapped up in your thoughts as you pass me by.

You don’t realise that you are like me,

You wouldn’t even want to try.

Too busy thinking what to have for tea,

Lasagne, curry, or something low fat?

Or could it be that your thoughts are more complex than that,

This task is a distraction, from the turmoil you face at home.

Maybe you just want to be alone.
