Who Cares: No One

Sometimes I think that no one cares for me... But me. Sometimes I think that my mom doesn't care She's too busy trying to get me out the house Too busy waiting for the day I turn 18 So she can be through with me. Sometimes I think that my dad doesn't care He's too busy.... what is he doing? Too busy being somewhere else Can you tell me where he is? Because I don't know. Sometimes I think that my bestfriend doesn't care He's too busy worrying about the latest gossip Too busy living his "perfect" life To even think about what's wrong with me. Sometimes I think that my family doesn't care They're too busy being separated Too busy fighting each other To actually take the time out to talk. Sometimes I think that my friends don't care They're too busy laughing and joking around Too busy worrying about their lives And I feel I shouldn't force mines upon them. Sometimes I think that the world doesn't care It's too busy fighting itself, killing itself Too busy with living, moving forward Not caring about the wounded soldier left behind.

You sound very sad, but no matter how much you thing no one cares, I DO. I care about people and I am sending you a hug. Try spending some time with an elderly person or volunteer helping someone, and you will find that you feel fulfilled, and know that people do care.
