Apathy

It’s a void
Purely tainted
With everything
And nothing
Every color
Drawn in
Tainting black
So that it’s black
No more

It’s slipping under the surface of the dark water
Drowning
A silent scream
Breathlessly ripped from the lungs
With one swift motion
The manic pounding of a dying heart
Echoing
Ceaselessly
In your deaf ears
As your cold body is embraced
By the sensual hands
Of death

Is that heart yours?
Or is it my own?

Let me feed you
Apathy
It’s an untouchable meal
Laid before your starving soul
Smell the stench of emptiness
Taste the poison of nothingness
Feast on nothing but
Pain

Dead now
You move through the world
Numb
