Grass Dies Where You Don't Water It

I got home
You asked to call
You didn't hear a word I said
You wanted to be heard but not to listen
I got to school
I didn't smile
I didn't laugh
Someone tried to pity me
I got home
It was late
Someone had made me feel like a nuisance
I tried to take my mind off of it 
But I looked down and realized 
that I lost my great grandfather 
4 years ago yesterday 
You asked if I would ask if I could
Come to the beach next weekend
It was 8:45 PM 
You didn't ask how my day was
9:00 PM
You didn't ask to call
10:00 PM
You asked to sleep
I said yes
I asked how your day was
You still didn't ask about mine
I lay awake and cried
You went to sleep with no idea
Days like these are when I feel the most
Useless
Alone
Uncared for
P.S. It was awful.
