I left this morning without a backward glance. I boarded the train without a moments hesitation. I started work, continued my day without a secondary thought. I operated on autopilot, smiled, laughed and bantered accordingly. I thought of nothing much outside of work. I like that I'm lost in a crowd. I waited for the clock to hit five, then left. I cut a lonely non-descript character. I like that I'm not seen. I like that I'm not noticed. I like that I'm not thought of. I like that one day someone will say: "I never knew".

I left this morning without a backward glance. I boarded the train without a moments hesitation. I started work, continued my day without a secondary thought. I operated on autopilot, smiled, laughed and bantered accordingly. I thought of nothing much outside of work. I like that I'm lost in a crowd. I waited for the clock to hit five, then left. I cut a lonely non-descript character. I like that I'm not seen. I like that I'm not noticed. I like that I'm not thought of. I like that one day someone will say: "I never knew".
