Who Cares?

Tonight, I finally realized that nobody really gives a shit I mean, I know it sounds harsh but often that's what reality is You see, it started out slowly Notifications on my phone became an uncommon occurrence Sometimes my presence felt as though it was testing others' endurance So I wondered if there was a remedy A remedy for this isolation I began to feel So I adapted I got louder in conversations so I wouldn't get drowned out I didn't tell if they asked how I was because what if they found out It's not like they'd care I mean, they would just judge, and then not be there But that's okay Because that's just how it goes Then it started going quicker Caring eyes strayed away from me It felt as though there was no remedy I longed to be held, but instead, I was shunned But it's okay because he has so many invisible people out there for him Lonely nights became far too common I was painfully aware of my own thoughts A few said that they would be there for me But instead, I just turned to my pen And you know why Because I guarantee If I stopped texting them first, I would never hear from them again I'm so alone I'm so alone The empty lightbulb has burnt out And the tears in my eyes refuse to leak out I'm so alone I'm so alone I'm so alone I'm so alone I'm so alone I'm so alone
