Indifference
I elicit no response
Neither good nor bad
Nothing of importance to you
Nothing of consequence?
Not a smile, not a sneer
Not even a look of apathetic disconnectedness?
How dare you!
Open your eyes, I am here.
I am here.
I will not let your ignorance
Supersede my presence.
I will not let your coldness
Freeze my spirit.
I will not let your disinterest
Replace any part of me.
I can defeat you
I will defeat you.
Go about your nonexistence, I choose life.
Sink into triviality, I will sing.
Show no sign of remorse, and I will laugh.
I know the antidote to your irrelevance
It's the one thing you cannot live without.
In your silent anger did you not know
The opposite of despair is not silence?
The opposite of despair...is love.
