I Don't Care

I don't care
I'm so used to it by now
I don't care
I don't care
I don't really f*****g care
leave me alone
I'll cut open skin and free trapped demons
broken angels on the floor
dust in the air and smoke in my lungs
don't save me
don't save me
just watch me fall
go ahead, you'll do it anyway
don't save me
I don't care.

I'll fall through the floor
and pass layers of hell
I'll reach for the heavens
those secrets won't tell
I'll scream in the night
and I won't give a f**k
when I don't fight
it's my own fault.
I'll name scars and broken lights
I'll laugh in the Earth's heart
sing me a song of broken memories
and tear this fucked up girl apart.
I've been broken down piece by piece
a silence kept too long will never cease
you think I'm afraid of you
you're so wrong
they'll reach for me and scream
truth is, I'm already gone.

Sometimes I wish I didn't have to care so much. But I have to because well that's just the way life goes. But I like this poem a lot nice job.

^My fave part but you probably knew that already. You scare me when you write stuff like this. So emotional and so angry, it feels so scary its mesmerizing and frightening at the same time. I love you're imagery and wording and strength of emotion. Wonderful job.
With Love,

A very powerful statement, indeed. I pray this is only a vent... You're not gone, only hiding in the dark. Hello, Sunshine! : >) Outstanding. Are you feeling baggler? I hope so...

Very powerful and demanding piece, I really like it that way. I felt the emotion strongly, like it was shouting in my face. I especially liked the ending line 'truth is, I'm already gone.' Great job :)
