"you know I don't care" this knot in my chest, is it pride or longing, his apathy, a stab in the heart, did it mean nothing, when I held your hand? did it mean nothing when we gazed into each other's eyes, did it mean nothing , the gazes, smiles and tears. each time I try to pull and hide, you pull me back in with a flicker of belief that glows, let me go, leave me alone, perhaps you don't know each crack you make, for this painful truth, is that I am scared of hating you, scared of not "caring", so please I beg let me go.
