Regret

Imagine waking up alone;
Maybe you already do.

No one's there to hold you
Or remind you that it's okay.
Today, you're on your own.

Callous, cold?  Me?  Maybe.
A dreamer turned skeptic,
Remembering how it used to be.
Effortless is how I imagined it,
Full of wonder and excitement...
Under-whelmed is how I feel, though,
Like I'd be better off without.

Without what, you ask?
Having to be absolutely everything
And feeling like absolutely nothing.
Today, I'd rather be alone, but...

I need attention to feel alive.

Waking up alone again,
Imagining you, not him,
Sitting in the next room...
Hopeless situation, this.

Forget everything I said till now.
Oblivious to how I am now, go on,
Remembering that I chose this path.

    Apathy is lethal, yes, and hypocrisy is good for covering up a wrongful death.
    Have you ever imagined what existance would be like if there were no want or desire of anykind, outside of the most basic urges to survive from day to day (you know air water food shelter and killing any competition that invades your territory)?
    How odd that man mocks the beasts for their primitive, unintellectual, "soulless" existances, yet said beasts seem to live such simplistic lives...never seen a squirrel wanting to jump to his death because its mate left it and took all the nuts with or a dog try to lay itself in front of a train because the other pack of dogs wouldn't let it run with them...
