You Don't Care

I am sitting here on my bed

thinking of all the times

we have shared.  I am

sitting here on my bed

thinking of those romantic

picnics in the park.  I am 

sitting here on my bed thinking

of your love filling my heart.



You don't care. 

You don't care.

You'll stay there.

You'll stay there.

You don't love my,

you love her.



I'm sitting here on your bed

Thinking of what I've done.

I'm sitting here on your bed 

thinking you're the only one.

I'm sitting here on your bed

with regret filling my head.

I can't believe what I've done.

I can't believe I used your gun.



You're crying.

You're crying.

You hate me.

You hate me.

You didn't love me

you loved her.



I'm sorry!

I'm sorry!  

I hurt you!

I hurt you! 

You loved her,

and I killed her.



-Athena (Age 15)
