Does Anybody Even Care?

I continue to hate myself,
Wishing I could just be that book upon a shelf.
Wishing someone could understand,
My hope is on its last strand.

Does anybody even care?

I lay in bed and cry,
Why do I even try.
I may seem happy,
But at the end of the day I feel crappy.

Does anybody even care?

The tears continue to keep me awake,
Here I'm crying with trembles and shakes.
I drown out my sounds so nobody hears,
I can't explain why I have so many tears.

Does anybody even care?


But I guess that's what its like when you hate yourself so much that all you can do is act like you're fine.
