"I became insane by brief periods of sanity."-Edgar Allan Poe


Why does no one care,

bout the little girl

ripping apart her world

Why does no one care,

bout the little boys

lost in the noise

Why does no one care,

that she grabs a blade 

and wishes to be slaid

Why does no on care,

that he picks up a gun

to end their fun

Why does no one care

that she bleeding out

she thought hate was what life was about.

Why does no one care,

that he pulls the trigger and ends it.

thinking that no one gave a s***.

Why does no one care

bout world being lost

No one stops to fuss.

Why does no one care,

That them as a child

decided to die.


The author's comments:

The feeling of no one caring for how our world is crumbling and how society pegs everyone a lable.

Totally agree with the idea of this poem! Society just doesn't care or want to hear about important topics like this.
