A Dreamer's Apathy

by @jestKarma

I used to be Able to read, But recently, Your words seem To move on Their own. Why can’t I read your words? I used to be Able to hear, But recently, Your presence seems To lenite On its own. Why can’t I hear your gaze? I used to be Able to feel, But recently, Your sound seems To lose tact On its own. Why can’t I feel your noise? I used to be Weak. Recently, Your being has Ceased to be By my hand. Why have I Become agnostic to you? I used to be Able to think, But now, frequently, You seamlessly Fill my thoughts On your own. Why can’t I remember you? I used to be Able to know, But at some point, You seem to have Left me On my own. Where did I end up falling? I’ve always wondered What strength was, And after time, It seems that I’ve Learned On my own. I wonder if you did too.

Notes

Since you've been gone, I've considered my indifference a strength. I thought maybe if you were indifferent to being away from me, you certainly have the potential to be much stronger than me.
