Indifference

Indifference is,

my gold plated chain holding my medal and cross.

It reveals to everyone,

who the hell I am and say

yeah that’s me, so what.

But the chain never asked for this.

Why does the chain

have to be held accountable.

The chain holds so much less meaning

as it lays there aimlessly around my neck

as medal and cross dangle down across,

my chest and heart.
