I just don't care I don't care I have to mail out 165 letters by Friday I don't care that I need to find a DUE report By 3 and it's already 2:30 I don't care that I'm way behind on my work In fact, I don't care about my job and I don't care if what I need to do even gets done. Why am I here Oh right, money Student loans rent utilities food gas How much do I give up in order to be comfortable but then again, am I really comfortable after everything that I give up? First world problems, I know I can't help it I am a selfish being The reality is, I am very lucky I have a lot but this is not enough I hate that part of me that wants more when so many have so much less I just want to care again
