from your claws.

 

Don't they care?

 

Dirt freezes, allowing a solid ground

while you freeze to death.

 

Doesn't it care? 

 

The sky silently rejoices when snowflakes scatter

creating scattered smiles,

while you suffocate

and bear the                  of them all.

                      weight

 

Don't they care?

 

Dancers glide beneath you, 

ignoring your outstretched arms resting there.

They take your presence for granted.

 

They don't care.

 

Animals c   r   a    w     l      over your body 

and hide in your hearts.

 

So selfish.

 

Don't they care?

 

For once, you wish they cared.

 

 

However, you must understand rhat they are not selfish.

They enjoy and delight in you and what you do.

 

You are valuable to them. 

Without You, 

life wouldn't be beautiful.

 

Life wouldn't exist.

 

They do care,

because You care.
