Answer 2

When D.H. Lawrence starts of the poem that “he like people at a distance”, we think that he is not a friendly person but no. He is a friendly person but an introvert.  From the line “if they will only leave me alone” we get to know that he is not left alone because of him being famous. 

We also understand that because of people speaking continuously, he feels that there is no room for everyone and if they only leave him alone then he can atleast imagine that there still more space in the world.  By this we understand that his mind is not silent and that he is yearning for that silence.  This yearning is reflecting outside as people speaking continuously
