Challenge 40: Not Listening

246. What I think about when I'm not listening.

What I think about when I’m not listening,

Well, it’s obviously not what you’re saying.

I find myself doing this a lot,

And they say it’s called day-dreaming.

It’s usually this I do,

You know, when I’m not listening.

I think about why the sky is blue

Or that why you don’t realize that I’m not interested in you.

If I’m not day- dreaming,

And have a serious kind-of look on my face;

I’m thinking about my worries,

Trying to hard find solutions to all my problems.

If I’m not day-dreaming,

And I don’t have the serious look on my face,

I’m thinking of things that has made me happy;

This brings a smile to my face involuntarily.

I like the last one best,

As I don’t feel like I’m wasting my time.

Well, thinking about it now,

All these three are much like a crime.

When someone is talking to me

I should listen with all intent

This is something I would appreciate

If I wanted someone to listen to me.
