Mirrors deep within me
Revealing
All the things of fear
Losing me
Leading me
Inside my heart
My soul
Contradicting
Everything in my mind
My Memories

I ran to a dark place
To concentrate
Contemplate
On this driving goal
Something to relate
Within my heart
My soul
Eating at me
Devouring
Whats left of my sympathy
Losing me
In this apathy

Self loathing
Conflicting
With hope for me
Misleading
Confused inside me
Fighting
My heart
My soul
As I fight to control this world
Disguising
With my words
Describing me
Asking myself
Whats the worth of me
In the eyes
Of who I once was
Conforming
To what frightens me
Sympathises with me
From inside my tortured heart
Tormented soul

Hiding me...
In the shadows
Whats left of me
Questions reeling
Delivering
Answers in me
And the falling tears
Shed by me
I scream
Don't walk away from me
Ignore me
Stay with me
... You leave
No love for me
No sympathy
Only cold apathy

As your eyes decieve
Conceal me
Deep inside myself
As I lose sight
Of who I am
I lose the fight
For my heart
For my soul

As I ask
My heart
My soul
Whats left of me
The mirror cracking
opening
something cold within me
consuming...
Something I was forgetting
The apathy
Taking me
Within myself
My heart
My soul

No more tears
A handful of fears
No sympathy
Just me
Standing alone
Only apathy
I'm asking
My heart
My soul

what is left of me

A cold, hard-edged feel to this piece,

Dissecting and discussing apathy.

An interesting observation ~ was it apathy that let the contraction "whats" be used several times without inserting the apostrophe ~ as in "what's" ?
