Poem Questioning How Much You Care

I wrote this when I felt so frustrated. I was then inspired, and the lines just came to me. I think other people can relate to my poem too.

How Can You Say You Care?

Published by Family Friend Poems March 2016 with permission of the Author.

Another day, another hour, another minute,
Another smile, another tear I thought was worth it.
Another wound that's hard to heal and hard to close,
Another path I have to take, not something I chose.

A year passes by, day after day,
Full of tears and pain, there's nothing I can say.
Been trapped for so long, can't take anymore.
I begin to wonder, are you still worth fighting for?

This state I'm in, this feeling of pain,
I question myself, what's there to gain?
Here in my head, here in my mind,
There's no reason there my heart can find.

I love you too much, it's been too long,
My heart's screaming out, "Everything's wrong!"
And yet you don't seem to care,
And I know you know this isn't fair.

Could you be any more insensitive?
You're making it so hard to believe.
You say you like me, please, as if!
If I leave you, you'd be relieved!
