When We Cared

When We Cared

I find myself wondering what I can do to make us okay

The writings on the walls of our homes remain stained

It might seem easy for me to not call

Or for me to not be bothered you aren't bothered for being absent at all

 I've prayed for your voided soul

I've prayed it's not void at all

I use to pray you're shadow was a phase

But you never changed

A piece of me knows you're still there

I'll hold the good times,

The memories of when we cared

If there's one thing I know to be true

You're good with being loyal to you

I don't hold a grudge

I cried a long time ago

You're going through the motions

The typical

When we cared, I didn't know this world

I wasn't aware of being hurt

I was just a little girl

But your little girl has seen we could be worse
