You sit in your room,
You wonder why you go on
Life just don’t care about you
That’s what you think

You think there’s no where to go
For all you care, you just want to die
That’s the only way out
Well your wrong, start over

Your life is like an apple
Some people hate apples
Some people love apples
But if people are mean,
It’s like they took a bite out of you

People leave you alone and you rot
Same as a apple, but you didn’t
So do people really care? Yes!
And you can always take another
Path and change your ways

I wrote this poem on November 24, 2010. I was thinking of some of hard times in my life. The only question that popped in my head was do people really care. I know now that there is always someone who cares about you, you just have to look around. I hope you enjoy this poem.
