i slide into bed
waiting for his kiss goodnight
he never comes
mom says it'll be alright
i hear him call goodnight
as he closes the door
i know he didnt forget
but i don't care anymore
the gravel crunches
as his car drives away
mom comes to me
not knowing what to say
"mom, he didn't forget
he just doesn't care
to him it's like
i don't breathe the air"
"don't think like that
you know it's not true"
shje lectures me
but i know it's through
times don't change
when he's stuck in his ways
hopefully he'll feel diferent
one of these days. by Kriss
