“They Don’t Even Know You!” Poem, by Nicole H., at My poetic side

I’m scared!

There, I’ve said it.

I’m afraid that no one would care,

If I died, or if I even lived.

Why would anyone care?

They don’t know me.

I bet some people would care,

They probably wouldn't,

because they don’t even really know me.

They ask me again about my hobbies,

They ask me again about anything that involves school.

They ask me again about my relationships,

They ask me again if I am still that innocent 12-year-old little girl.

They still ask if I like things from five years ago,

But I’m going to be honest.

I’m not the same person I was five years ago,

I’m not even the same person I was 10 years ago.

How funny is it that the people who say they love you,

Continue to show that they don’t care to even know you.
