Apathy is an anvil

by Lydian Beck

Hollow eyes speak more truth than tongues
Whoever said you need water to drown
Has never had lies fill up their lungs
A slow spiral down
Just one more pill
With apathy as an anvil

So much truth in lines 2 and 3.

you have touched upon a semblance of eternity in these few words, have delved in what has always been in the realm and preoccupation of poets since time immemorial.
