Who Cares.

Though I know you try so hard,
I see it everyday,
I know you're dying deep inside,
You're starting to waste away.
I can see it in your eyes,
That you're scared of yourself,
I can tell because I am too.
I never once thought it'd get this far,
And please don't take that too hard.
Though I can see you getting darker,
Both in head and heart,
I can't do a thing,
Because I've torn us apart.
I wish I was better,
That I could save us all,
Not you and I,
But us all, everyone.
I wish I could say,
Just once that someone cared,
But those people have disappeared.
I can see you hide behind those words,
I'm fine! You yell,
Though you hate those words.
Deeper and deeper the rabbit hole goes,
It's a long hard way back up,
But who knows if we can do it?
You're deeper than I, it seems,
But I'm following suit.
I disguise in smile,
However, I don't know about you.
I can't say I'm able to help.
You can't say you want to.
No one can help when you're falling this fast,
No one can help when you're gone,
Every breath could be your last.
But if it's not, by chance,
What do we do?
If we stay on this earth,
Will anyone say they knew?
That they knew about us,
Or more likely you,
That you tried so hard to be calm,
Tried so hard to do what you do.
Who notices, our eyes,
When we smile so fake.
Who cares when we walk past,
Just another person.
I care about you,
And you may care about me.
But if we're the same,
What's it matter?

This isn't about you. This isn't about me. This is what was on my mind. If you want it to be about you or me, so be it.
