I Don't CareA Poem by Kieran James McGovernI’m overwhelmed and unemployed Sometimes so devoid of joy Everything is dull and flat But I don’t care about all that I’m unconcerned, you’re unaware I don’t care, I don’t care Headlines: heartache all-around But I don’t care right now I don’t care at all ‘bout love Or the lies you’re speaking of I don’t care about heaven or hell I don’t care about anyone else I don’t give a s**t about your name ‘Cause in the end, it won’t remain I don’t care, nothing will It’s just time and ourselves’ we kill Should the world disintegrate I don’t care, I can’t wait There’s nothing more that I can do And I don’t care, ‘cause I am through Traverse the alleys of my life The slimy walls, the lack of light All I’ve seen and all I’ve done People think I’m weak and dumb But I don’t really even care They’re not going anywhere ‘Cause when the stars begin to fall There’s room enough in hell for all People talk and people stare I don’t care, I don’t care Whether or not life is fair I don’t really care I swear I don’t care I don’t care © 2010 Kieran James McGovern |
