The Indifferent
I like you careless
Never bothering to think “what if”
Never bothering to give a damn about the people
Never upsetting yourself over the tiring thoughts of them
I like you blunt
And cold to those who try to aim fires at you
And the only visible emotion is indifference
Hard to touch
And seemingly so very unmoved
But most of all
After months of patience
Days of holding up with all the indifference
I like it when I burn through those icy impassive walls of yours
I like it when I make you feel a little fiery
And you can learn to love it when you burn
You can see it through my eyes
And whenever you are vulnerable
Depressed and homesick
I see how little things matter to you
And my heart softens a little more for you
And you become everything I need to fix
