When Walking

When walking
I tend to keep my eyes
on the ground

Its not that I can't look up or
that I'm shy

I just don't like
to be around
people in this town

Introverted
and cynical
avoiding confrontation
is critical

Saying hello is painful
so is answering questions
But if I don't look towards the professor
Questions are destined

Thats why
I'm always looking down
Discourage talking
by wearing
a frown

When walking
I tend to keep my eyes
on the ground
