Why Do I Try?
Does he even care?
The mirror stares back at me as I curl my hair
The stench of burnt hair consumes the room
Does he even care?
My makeup brushes swifting powder onto my face
Trying to cover up every little insecurity
Does he even care?
No, no, no, how can I have no cute clothes
The no pile towers up, To do: get new clothes
Does he even care?
I walk into school and enter the hallway where we pass
My eyes jolting in every direction trying to spot him
Does he even care?
No
Didn't even glance
