When I was around
no one noticed, none came-
when I disappeared completely
they wandered in search frantically
and wanted to know my name-

gossips all at once went viral
many boldly did claim
I had hidden far away
out of some dreadful shame-

some sort of notoriety
I overnight became
their obsession over me
had turned into a hunting game-

'twas such a great blessing
to be in my solitude's frame
myself to own and cultivate
without being noticed or being called to fame
