A Soul Must Care

And so you’re here. You’re here again.
To cloud my mind, to watch the strain?
To bear your eyes when I can’t see, you bear your eyes all night on me.

I close my eyes knowing that you are there.
But to haunt a life, a soul must care!
I don’t know if it’s weakness, foolishness or simply a wanting for you to dare? 
You can’t hurt me now. My soul just doesn’t care.

I wish you'd read my poem. This is related in a way. I like what it is. A statement.
