A World Where Nobody Cares

She wants someone who will treat her like the world, Take her in their arms and promise her the world She wants someone to whisper "It will be alright, When things get tough, He won't just run and hide She wants to be his everything, For him to look in her eyes and not feel ashamed She doesn't care about a storybook romance, Though she wouldn't complain to have someone walk her home She's so tired of crying herself to sleep Wishing for a love that didn't exist So, there is someone out there for everyone, But is this really the truth? At the end of the day does anyone care enough to say goodnight. She wakes in the morning putting on her makeup, Squeezing into those new jeans that fit just right Not trying to impress anyone, At the same time wishing anyone would just stare Living in a world, Where nobody cares

Thanks for sharing this. Welcome to Poetry Soup.
