If You Cared Enough

You said you loved me, But you still left me, And you took a piece of me with you, And I want it back. I gave you my heart, But you broke it, You took a sledgehammer to it, And left me to pick it up piece by piece. If you really loved me, You would’ve accepted me, If you cared enough, You’d still smile at me. Whenever I pass you, You don’t even look at me, Your eyes are cold, And your heart is hardened. In my hardest time, You knocked me down, You left me for dead, With not one iota of emotion on your face. From someone I know to someone I knew, In the blink of an eye, If you cared enough, You’d still be here.
