To Make You Care

I sit in my chair
In a crazed daze
Thinking about how
You told me
You didn't care
Even if it was
Just a "lovers quarrel"
You know
How I can be
Overly emotional
All the time

So maybe tonight
I'll drink
Until I don't feel unwanted
Anymore
Or until I pass out
So I can't think rationally
Anymore

I laugh as I think
About what I could do to
Myself
To make you care
That knife over there
Might come in handy
I see that rat poison
Underneath the sink
We must have some cyanide
Somewhere
And Grandma's morphine
Is by her bed

My mind races
As I think of you
Holding my limp body
Wishing
You hadn't said
You didn't care

I will make you care
I thought
As I smiled
And took a large
Sip of the bottle
In my hand
Meanwhile
I'll drink myself
Into oblivion
Wishing
You would care

    Let me start off by expanding on the previous comments: No guy is worth losing ANYTHING. Now, onto the comment.

    Whoooooa this is VIVID. Great description--even that is an understatement!! There is so much raw emotion in this piece, and really, I don't know what else TO say about it!!

    Love ever-

    Oh my God, I really hope you don't feel this way. I agree with DyingRose, NO guy is worth losing your life over. Even if you do find that one that your suppossed to be with and they like...die or something, have you noticed, there's always another? You just happened to find the first one first. Great write.
