The truth

is not the truth entirely

I think of it as a lie

nothing more than a fraud

because

if you are told

you matter to someone

you are enough for someone

you are loved by someone

or just simply are to someone

then how

do they rip your heart open

the one heart

you didn't know you had

until it fit with theirs

and gave love to yours

why don't we just give up

when

they can live without us

because

if nobody cares

are we even alive at all
