Apathy


Her glacial and blistered love is still his sole inclination, yet she has renounced his compassion a lifespan ago. He clings to her bosom despite her apathy, yearns to be in her favor though he must traverse the littered bones of her past lovers, once like hoofed satyrs now faulted by her cold rejection.

He is bound by her left-over passion locked in a dark and undergrown garden of his own creation and mistaking a stranger for a long awaited friend. Onward he stumbles, asking for forgiveness from those unaware of the path desperate for the mere suggestion of her dim love. Seeking guidance from counterfeit arbiters of decorum. Yet her harsh approval is arranged upon a level unreachable even by Hercules himself.

She evinced and proud of what is left to be, knowing that fate alone shall unroll the shades of the future. Tracking with bare feet through specious chaos, reaping tributes undeserving of her forgetful cause.
