Attention Perspective

You say that you don’t get attention,

You say that we’re the ones to blame.

But when I try to speak to you,

All you do is run away.

You claim that you’re being ignored,

While wasting all our precious time.

Can’t you see that we’re all bored,

Of every time you start to whine?

I understand you may be lonely,

And feel like things aren’t going well.

But I can’t believe you blame us only.

And expect us, on your pain, to dwell.

If you want some help, don’t make us,

Figure out each tiny Clue.

And with your problems, do not blame us,

For whatever’s wrong with you.

The simple fact is that, we’re tired,

When you expect us to supply,

More attention that required,

To problems which you always hide.

Can’t you see we all are troubled?

Our lives don’t gravitate ‘round you.

It’s not our fault you’ve been so coddled,

We can’t spend all our time with you.

And if you say that I am lying,

And deceiving you about what’s there.

I’m telling you now, I’m just trying,

To be honest…

…Because others won’t dare.
