Do not care, because you have to
I don’t need another lie.
You claim you care, you claim you're there.

Though I don't see you anywhere.
Where are you when i'm crying?
Where are you when i'm dying?


You claim you care, you claim you're here.
I don't see you though anywhere.
The screams in my head is too much to bear.

Though I don't feel you near.
I do not care, I am not even here.
I am a shell of who I once was.

I don't care, I never will.
My mind starting to feels ill.
Your lies are the enough to kill.

Please don't make me take the pill.
The pill is a lie, it fakes the happiness.
The truth is all there is is sadness.

I am now buried into the ground.
But now you chose to make your sound.
Because you didn’t care, you claim you were here.


The author's comments:

I hope people will learn that they need to do more then to say "I care" when somone has depression. Those words don't mean anything unless you put action to it. I wrote this poem when I was struggling with my depression recently and relize alot of people told me they cared but didn't show it to me.
