Apathetic
She desires pity
She tells her life stories of how life is cruel and unfair
To expect nothing much
She tells others that love is only a chemical reaction
A desire to only bring about and raise offspring
And once the reaction is done expect them to go their different ways
Sex is a high when no rollercoaster is around
Sex is used to give us the pleasure of life when life gives us nothing
With her distant personality and negativity
She is called apathetic
She surprises many with the opportunities she is given
They come to listen and bring a rose
She says
No
She keeps her legs closed to keep the rumors at bay
People talk but now they have less to say
People don’t know her life beyond what she tells them
Of exaggerated truths and under-told lies
She goes to a house filled with suffering and hope
She expects nothing from life except what she can grab
Yet she dreams
Of a man that is willing to listen and never offer a rose
But love
She only wants love
