Uncaring

No feelings

No depth

No core to strike the iron hot

Upon.

I regret to inform you Sir

That I have lost the capacity

To care,

That I have dropped the

Ephemeral Ball of belief

And have become tangled

Undone.

A shallow

Hollowed

Cracked

Broken and busted

Shapely shell

That contains only dust,

Particles of Mistrust

 

I am bumpy rolling stone

No moss collected

Just cleft reflected

On a surface

Not shy or unscarred of pain.

 

This is today

This empty decay

This is now, this dust cloud

Caught trapped aloof and uncaring.
