Tesco

I stand in Silence

I stand in Fear

I cannot see

I cannot hear

I’m not in Battle

I’m not at War

I’m simply stood

On a shopping floor

The people rushing

From here to there

They cannot see me

And do not care

For I am different

For I’m part dead

You cannot see

What’s in my head

I wake, I shake

I wonder why

And now its coming

And now I cry

I simply popped in

For some bread

But something happened

Inside my head

So please you people

Do not stare

Just pass me by

Til I’m aware

I need my time

I need my space

I can’t be normal

I’ve lost that race

Now don’t be sorry

Its not your fear

I can be normal

But not in here

I guess its time

To shop online

My friends say try it

You’ll be fine

But that won’t help

It just delays

The need to conquer

And have good days

So off to Tesco

I must go

Please lets have quiet

I do hope so
