Care

Why don't you care ?
Why don't you care when my voice is a cry for help ?
Why don't you care when I am telling you that I'm not fine ?
Is it because you think I'm seeking attention ?
Is it because I am all that you depiste ?
I have tried everything to ask you for a hand
To pull me out of the river I'm stuck in.
But instead, you just push my head under water and laugh,
As I am drowing, as my lungs fill with water.
How can I care so much when all you want is my harm ?
Why did you let me care for you ?
I was used to being alone and numb to it.
But now that you've made me feel,
Now it has changed everything.
Because not only are you hurting me.
But because of you I'm hurting myself again.
