The perks of a temporary life

-What if-

What if every word you said,
suddenly turned into dust in the ears of those,
who were supposed to listen to you?
Because you did. Always.

What if every important word turned into something unimportant because people forgot those words of yours as they've been told?
But you were the one sitting on a bench with one of your self-called „loved one's" after midnight, trying to remind yourself of every single tiny word they said.

What if people ignore you because they don't think your words or you are worthy enough,
for paying attention?
But you are the judged one,
if once in a while,
you don't reply,
if something was said or texted.

It's not much,
but enough to know,
if people care.
If not,
they are not worth all of your effort and love.
