Do I even matter?
Do you even care?
What happened to
“We’ll always be friends”?
How come you’re no longer there?
You said that you’d be here,
When I needed you.
But you said a lot of things-
Was any of it true?
You asked for time
You asked for space
Needed to find yourself
You left me here all alone
I can’t turn to
Anyone else
My head’s constantly aching
And my heart? It’s all shattered
Every time I think of you
And see that you’ve moved on
Every day my heart’s breaking
Realizing that you’re gone.
Do you even care?
Do I really matter?
Do you care I’m lying here
Emotionally beaten and battered?
Do I Matter?
