“I Just Do Not Care”
(Tom Entrican, 03/04/2023)
Why was I born, why am I here?
Why did I waste it for so many years?
When will I go, so little left to spare?
Does it matter if I just do not care?
My children I love yet distant of mind
One looks like me but still different in kid
If I assume room temperature and no one is there
Would anyone cry, maybe they do not care
Love of my life, my heart turned to dust
Decided to leave for all of the rust
Took what she had, my heart not spared
In my dark little corner I just do not care
To this world I came naked, a frightening thought
All the love that was given I treated so wrong
And there is nothing that I can change or repair
And for scars I have earned I just do not care
One day all this grumpy will be bailed up real tight
When my name is called, wrinkled up I take flight
The peace knowing my soul the savoir has spared
Because unlike me He really does care
