Your Indifference

This world. This world,
how cruel. Plans made.
Promised. Taunted. Teased,
and tempted. As if I didn't know.
God, you silly boy.
How stupid of you.
How stupid you must think me.
Sometimes breathing
is the only thing one can do.
Breathe in and hope that the irony
doesn't smother you.
Breathe out and pray
he won't smell your fear.
I must be so silly to you
this crazy little girl
all wrapped up in herself
I must never breathe to you
never live like you
I could never be you, true
but I still know the difference
between an excuse, a lie
and indifference.

Some people can't be shaken out of their indifference. Well expressed!
