Doesn't Matter
November 14, 2011
Just because I say it doesn't matter,
doesn't mean I'm telling the truth,
because it does matter,
I'm just lying to make myself seem stronger,
when it reality I'm weak.
Can't you see how much I'm hurting?
Or,
do you just not care to notice.
Or,
is my amour just that good enough?
Can't you see how much pain I am in?
Or do you just choose it ignore it?
Just because I say it doesn't matter,
doesn't mean I'm telling the truth,
because it does matter,
I'm just lying to make myself seem stronger.
