I’ve been given This materialistic item. Apparently it’s what people do To show love and gratitude. But I don’t want it. I was told I was loved, By ones close to me. But for some reason, It meant nothing. I want to be appreciative For all these blessings I am being given, But something inside of me Is telling me to ignore them. My body, My mind, Has become detached from this world, And is just floating somewhere In the abyss Where everything Means nothing.
