Apathy
I sit with an apathetic reaction
The roar of sound that surrounds me
A white noise of constant chatter
I hear laughter, I hear crying
But I still sit in my never ending apathy
In my apathy I still remain
In the gray wall room
That protects me from feelings
No emotion can break through
My apathetic room
I watch with my apathetic indifference
Observing the emotional
I see all the sadness, heartache and pain
As people lose to emotions they have gained
So I locked away my feelings till only apathy remained
With my apathy I made a little box
Where I stuffed all my feelings
All the love and the joy
The sorrow and pain
So in my apathy, I’ll never lose, never gain
