How do I not care about how,
You feel nothing at all,
You know I’m hurting,
But you do nothing.

How I want to forget,
How I want to not care,
But how do I not care?
How do I forget today?

When I still give you my body,
I still hurry to fix a late night meal,
And I, still put up with your excuses.

About the number of times you call her a day,
I care, about how you tell her all your plans,
Concerning every other thing, except about me.

I care about how you tell her she’s all you need,
When I am here, praying and working to support you, 24/7
I care, about how you make you want her, not me.

I care about how you make her feel important, and
Appreciated, when I am putting in every work,
I care about how comfortable you make her around you,
About how you make her feel like there’s no me and you.

I care about it all, even as I want to not care at all.
