Oh, To Be Left Alone Poem by Ray Hansell

Why does it seem
I always get woken up
In the middle of a dream?

I'm sound asleep
Then I'm awakened
My dreams, I never get to keep

In the middle of a book
Someone has a question
I never answer, I just throw them a look

In the middle of a game
The phone seems to ring
The disruptions drive me insane

I wonder why it seems
That others want to bug me
Until I want to scream

Oh, to be at home
But never left alone
