Staring straight ahead,
looking but seeing nothing.
You say hello, how are you?,
but I'm lost in thought.
Staring at the floor,
eyes open yet blinded.
You wave in front of my eyes,
but I'm lost in thought.
Staring at my text book,
attentive yet oblivious.
You snap in my face,
but I'm lost in thought.
Staring at the clouds,
seeing nothing but white.
You storm away unnoticed,
because I'm lost in thought.

Very Nicely Done!!
You've done very well with this.. and I absolutely loved it.. sometimes we really dont notice someone so important because we get so lost in our own little world of thoughts and feelings. You've captured that feeling, and told the story very well.
Great Job!

A very nice write. We often stare of in space with nothing on our minds. I love that relaxing time. A great piece.

This is really good! You have painted a wonderful image of emotion in this quatrain and the repeating line is very powerful.

Actually this has great potential....I think it could be expanded on a bit more. Like why are you lost in thought?? Who storms off unnoticed?? Excellent beginning here....But if you think it is perfect than I think so too!! You truly are gifted at writing and making the reader wonder..
