If they cared enough

If they cared,

They would reach out,

You can think about all that you didn’t do,

The dumb stuff you said,

Trust me if they cared enough they would. 


How many more passive aggressive moves can you make,

Hoping and looking for subliminal messages,

How much more will you lie to yourself,

Trust me if they cared enough they would. 


Yes, I’m sure they are going through things,

Who isn’t?

I’m not saying they didn’t ever care,

They once were all in, 

I’m saying they don’t care right now. 


Stop hanging around,

Waiting, and hoping.

For them to want to see you,

To call, to text, to send funny memes again,

For them to fucking care about you. 


It doesn’t have to be forever,

But it certainly needs to be for right now. 

You have to be about you now,

It’s not selfish, 

It’s what’s needed, 

Trust me if you cared enough you would.
