I Used To Be Beautiful
I Used To Care
Someone would cry and I’d be there to comfort them.
I would tell them everything would be okay.
I would go out of my way,
Spewing lies from my sugar-coated lips,
To make things better.
They would smile and thank me.
They were my friends.
Slowly they began to turn,
I would say something in confidence to someone;
Someone I trusted.
Then my secret problem became known to all.
When I shed tears, no one helped; no one cared.
That is when I made my vow.
Now when they cry, I watch with mild amusement.
I smirk with devilish lips, my forked tongue hidden behind its toothy cage.
I thought this would be hard, but it was simple.
I used to care.
Not anymore.
