Storied Apathy

Tell me a day where you have not experienced apathy and that day you will have isolated yourself. But even still, you’ve become apathetic of society.

Take a deep breath and actually breathe. Take in your surrounding and hear the sounds you’ve missed in the past. Smell the air that you breathe. Let its morning crispness and evening relaxation be more refreshing than an ocean breeze. Get lost in the mentality and sight of music. Take the time to see how beautiful you are. But above all else, don’t lose yourself to this world.

Each passing day I gazed through a glass mirror amazed at how lost I was and the person I had become. No longer fond to stop and to meditate, to enhance and initiate the communication between myself and who I really was. My body walked but autonomously. I ate but did not enjoy. I talked but did not meaningfully contribute. Behind the mirror I screamed but I mirrored the actions of this being I did not understand. I fell deeper and deeper into the abyss and could only look up as I was consumed/ Each passing day I gazed through a glass mirror amazed at how lost I was and the person I had become. No longer fond to stop and to meditate, to enhance and initiate the communication between myself and who I really was. My body walked but autonomously… I fell into the assembly line… I fought and fought until my mind bled. I no longer stand behind the glass mirror. I have become it.
