Your Existence?

Nobody really cares about your existence
but they will pretend.
oh sure, they will pretend.

. . . . but why?


because they need people to (pretend to) care
about them, too.
Why?
Why?
Why?

It is simple.
Human beings are fragile creatures
with needy desires for foolish emotions,
like love.


an in the end we are all alone
because the people who told us they cared
lied.

because they too are human,
selfish,

and desperate
to feel loved.
