I am a creature of malevolence, a creature without empathy or compassion.
Example one
She sits before me, her beautiful and sweet eyes already filling with salty tears.
"Why Aladdin, why do you want to break up with me ?".
The question was perfectly valid. She was cute, sweet and very smart.
Those beautiful orbs, pleading with me to reconsider my decision,
"Tell me, why don't you want to be with me?"
To be honest, if I did have a reason, it eluded me at the time
"I don't have to tell you anything, just leave me the fuck alone"
She starts to cry, those doe eyes pouring out the grief from within.
I stare back, stare blankly and like ice.
My eyes are beautiful, they tell me that they look like the eyes of an angel, but
they are wrong. I have the eyes of satan, the soul of a demon.
Nothing resembelling empathy exists in me. I cannot feel the pain of others. I am detached from the world around me.
She snaps me back to reality with a firm backhand "Why, tell me why!?"
The answer swells around in my head, she wasn't a perfect ten and I refuse to date anything less.
I would give up a potentially fulfilling relationship with a beautiful girl, mearly because I feel
that perhaps I can do better
The soul of an animal, no empathy for other human beings.
Example two
My friend looked at me, his eyes are as beautiful as mine, but his dark soul lurks inside with
as much detachment as mine.
The handicapped man sits in his wheelchair. Not disturbing anyone, or saying anything wrong.
His personality doesn't matter, his thoughts and intelligence doesn't matter to us.
The same joke runs through both our heads, we laugh at this poor man's impediment.
The horrible anecdotes we share and their horrible content
"What did the deaf, dumb and blind girl get for christmas ?"
"Cancer"
The relentless laughter we get at the expense of others, the expense of our souls.
The soul of an animal, no empathy for human beings.
Example three
Everyday without fail, she promised that she would commit suicide.
We never took her seriously, we laughed at her and one day we were bored.
Boredom drove us to commit an act that will forever mark us, make us no better then any criminal.
"Maybe you should slit your wrists, remember to go down the street when doing it"
"Yeah, dont go across the lane, wouldn't want you to actually make it"
We laughed, the joke was the funniest thing we had come up with all day.
Like children with a new toy, we just wouldn't let it go.
"Slit them, do you think you will be missed ?"
"You won't be, we will all laugh at your funeral"
She was in tears now, her threats of suicide continuing in the same way that they always had
"I will do it, I swear I will"
I smirked "Include me in your suicide note"
She didn't come to school, a week past and the school held an assembly.
We all sat their, finally the principal emerged "We have lost a precious soul from our school community"
Then came the absolute worst part, the part that is unforgivable.
We went outside, we laughed.
The death of another brought with it tears.
Tears of laughter, relentless laughter.
The soul of an animal, no empathy for human beings.
So I beg you, do not become like me.
Do not become an unfeeling animal, be aware of your fellow man and care for them.
Do not get lost in a sea of narcassim from which you will never recover.
Live with a sense of honor and dignity, live with a sense of compassion.
Without compassion you will never win. With it, you can never lose

When you make a post in which you warn everyone not to be like you, are you not acting contrary to your supposed apathy?
Oh, and no one should ever say "My eyes are beautiful. They tell me that I have the eyes of an angel..."

It's one thing to be apathetic, it's another to be a dick.
Although, when somebody threatens something, I'll call their bluff.
