To Care

May 13, 2009
By Anonymous

I feel so cold, so empty inside,
My broken heart I try to hide,
Your gaze is piercing,
What is this feeling?

This isn't fair,
I shouldn't care.
How are you doing this?
Why is it you I miss?

With you here I was happy
So pretend you never loved me
Pretend you never cared
But I'll always be there
If you ever choose to call
And stop my vacant fall

This isn't fair,
I shouldn't care,
How are you doing this?
Why is it you I miss?

When you left I went through hell
Now I'm nothing but a shell
Devoid of all emotion
Because of my devotion
I feel so cold, so empty inside
My broken heart I try to hide

This isn't fair
I shouldn't care
How are you doing this?
Why is it you I miss?

My vision is distorted
My image is clouded
My life is gone
Like the presence I long

I hope you pay the price
Your eyes filled with ice
You broke my heart
Was this your plan from the start?

Did you love me?
Did you care what we could be?
Why did you disappear?
Was it simply out of fear?

I hope you empathize
With the pain in my eyes
I wonder if you realize
I saw through all your lies.

This isn't fair,
I shouldn't care
How are you doing this?
Why is it you I miss?

I went with you anyway
In hopes that you would stay
That hope was all for nothing
You left before the morning.

All I have to say now
Is, "I wonder how
You could leave without saying goodbye,"
Without a tear in your eye
One that mirrored mine
As if a sacred shrine

This isn't fair,
I shouldn't care
How are you doing this?
Why is it you I miss?
Why do I wish
To know your kiss?

I feel so cold, so empty inside
My broken heart I try to hide.
This isn't fair,
Why don't you care?
