Detached

Whole night sorrows underneath my pillow;
Nightmare hits, and scared of attachments.
Every day I hope to rise, but fall down below;
Meets magical tales and spell enchantments.
At peace with things, I watch Korean dramas,
Better to watch than those who don't care about!
Selfless in my service, but their dilemmas—
No need of an egotist, hopeless; please get out!
All I ask for is peace at a time, and just me;
Leave, or let me live away, all the way out free.
Even if I care, I am attached, and what not?
All that I ask for is a respectful gesture around.
Things which I have left behind will live alone.
I talk less but speak my mind and let it be alone.
It doesn't matter if I'm lost right now and then;
All I live and think about is a great, great friend.
