Why Didn'T You Care

Words hurt They can trip me up Whilst leaving me to Pick up the last of My pride Over time I have become Used to the hatred and To the lies But that doesn’t mean That I wasn’t still Affected by them Once these words were said I couldn’t ignore them And once I heard those words I couldn’t forget and I Definitely couldn’t forgive I would replay the scene Over and over While falling down the Spiral of self hate Again and again Until I realised that I was On my own with no one to Talk to and no where to go The only thing I could grasp Was my constant Urge to die So why did you say it? Why didn’t you care? 15th February 2020
