There was once a man who pined for a lost love he would never have. It wasn’t due to different social cliques, or age. She didn’t know he was alive. He stumbled through life following after her. His cries for her attention went unnoticed. She went about her days avoiding him. Not on purpose, but sheer ignorance of his existence.

Then again, the living rarely pay the living dead mind until they are chewing on an arm or leg.
