the beauty of your apathy

By Sky Singer

"i can't take it anymore! when i'm with you i feel like i'm nothing... i feel like i'm nothing. that's why i flinch when you come and touch me --that's why i never thouch you-- i never even THINK about it... because when i start to, it just reminds me that i'm not good enough"
--From Autumn to Ashes


day after day
you plagued my mind,
my entire being

every thought
was of you,
and of "us"

what happened to that
precious friend
i had in you?

i poured out
my soul
to you
i gave my
very heart
to you

...and where are you now?

mama always said
"watch out for those musicians"
and of course,
i didn't listen
