I know you don't care
So stop pretending you do

I'm starting to care
Less and less
Mainly because
I've been made numb
And looked dumb
Too many times

I never knew that my
Deepest
Darkest
And dirtiest sin
Would attract someone so new
And so kind
Who knew
That someone could view my actions
In a different light
Calling it romantic
And selfless
I am suddenly understood
And it's such a nice surprise
To make a new friend
Or more
With someone
Who seems to genuinely
Want, care, and need me
