Have you ever noticed when in a fight,
either with a loved one, a friend or an enamy,
three certain words always come up..
I don't care

I don't know why, but these words hurt a lot,
people always say them, but i know they don't mean them,
why should a person waste there time saying it,
when deep down in they are thinking the total oppisite

I try my best not to use these words, but belive me it is truely hard
i'm thinking people just look for something to say,
and thats all that comes to mind,
thinking that it might just hurt the other person,
when, sometimes is does, but sometimes it doesn't

Its killing me in side today, i didn't say it, but have been told it about 5 times
I stuck to my word, and wouldn't say it,
I just asked, why doesn't anyone care? but no one had an answer
all anyone can do is just argue,

So i just decided to take my time, and right a few lines,
Saying something, like I don't care
could perhaps change someones life..
It doesn't seem like that big of word, but it has a huge meaning
It just gives the person you like or love, the wrong idea.


If you love someone you would go to the end of the world for them!

Hey, yeah, I agree.  This poem points something out that I think is impotant.  I think it's true that "people just look for something to say".  Good job on the poem and thanks for sharing your thoguhts

Well hey, i didnt much care about this poem.....hehe ok im kidding. But no seriously you point out a very good...well...uhhh...point! It's well thought out and i thank you for posting it up. I think people should read this and get the realization that, yea, even when you're fighting you should think twice with what you say. Especially if it's with some one you love.

A very enlightening piece.  Word of advice, don't let it bother you so much.  People just say it cause it like a famous line.  Something easy to say to get out of an arguement...The easy way out.  And most of us do look for the easy way out.  It's human nature i guess.  Thanks for sharing

Your poem is excellent and also very true. Your right, I dont care does come up a lot, too often actually. I hate hearing those words and its so hard to control yourself from saying them. Its great that you have control or try to have control over saying it. Your poem exzpresses a strong point that i totally agree with. Good job hun =o)

I totally know how that goes!! a few weeks ago, i was in a rather bad mood, (we wont go into why) and my boyfriend told me he loved me....guess what i said...thankfully he called that night, and everything was fixed, cause the next night was homecoming!!!

If you love someone dont put their name in a heart,
put their name in a circle, because a heart can be broken
but a circle is continious.

Thankyou everyone who has replyed to this poem.. I wasn't sure what anyone would think of it.. It was kind of, one of those poems you have in your head and it just all takes about 5 minutes.. hehe  Anway, and Tamma i'm really glad that you did get it worked out! It really would of sucked if you didn't. I guess we just all have to kind of watch what we say in an agurment or even just an everday not get along thing.. hehe....  Also... Acrie, you did make a point, that it is just a word/phrase used just to get out of a fight.. But eveyone that I have been in with those words used, it just dug into the fight deepper! Ya I do agree that if It is a little argument like for example "no i didn't say that" then ya sumthing like saying.. fine ok I don't care anymore.. It can work.. but I'm kind of talking bigger then that!! Get what I'm saying... Like in Tamma's case it could have really been bad, but thankfully it wasn't! Well anyway again thanks for replying!!
  Luv ya all,
    cutie

Yea, I was lucky   I even wrote a poem about my lil experience with it, it was the one that i posted wheni came back, so the subject line says "I'm back(For anyone that cares)

Once again, Great poem...It is so true

hey.. nice poem. you made a very good point and i can totally relate to it.. i think a lot of people can. to me that phrase has a lot of meaning even if people dont realize it when they say it. just makes you think more than once about the words that come out of your mouth!! good job!
