Apathy

Apathy, it makes life easier, carries the burdens of "care" and "emotion"

But everyday I feel as if it strips something from my soul, I want to try to care, but alas life is easy why bother

I can seem to find that connection or spark from one human to another, I miss it

I want to love and be loved but it seems impossible just because I'm.... Me

So why not put up this wall of indifference so people won't know how hard I try or how weak and fragile I am

I suppose after so much "emotion" it's easier to build this wall and shut everyone out

Every once in a while there will be a crack and I reach out hoping to find another broken, or damaged soul to be with, because maybe together we can be whole

Maybe when a broken person finds another they can break down these walls and our scars can be on display for the world to see

Maybe just maybe we can "feel" again, unafraid peering eyes or scornful hearts we can be broken together

Someday these walls will come crashing down and I can scream at the top of my lungs "you have not taken me yet, I am broken but I am whole"
