Detachment

They say I am not capable of proclivity,
why must I spend time in such activity
that define the basis of thought for our generation,
all running desperately behind amorous sensation,
so easily swept by temptation.
Yet I stand undeterred, unaffected,
not flattered by all these compliments he stated,
cause I know these poetic words he writes for me,
were sung and strung for many who come behind me,
and many more who will follow when he has had me.
I don't wanna be just another predicament,
and so I have grown a layer of detachment,
and for this one must be brave,
cause you will have none to trust, touch and chafe,
yes it gets lonely sometimes but at least you will be safe .
