I don’t care
I don’t.
I never did.
I don’t care.
I won’t.
Never will.

…I do care.
I do.
I always did.
I do care.
I will.
I always will.

I care too much
  Let me feel not.

Oblivion,
    
           Sweet nothingness…

Where are you?

Classic internal battle of will here, and done cleverly.

I was writing the above and stopped for a second to get my thoughts straight before going on and saw your critique instructions. It is your poem, you can demand anything you want from whomever comes here, but the comments and critiques are the property of those who comment and critique. At any rate I stopped going on because something in me was deflated after reading your "instructions."

Understood. It's more of a request than a demand. I appreciate the "good writes" but if I have to improve my methods, I need a little more.

You are right, pen&paper, I apologize for being so preachy.

It's alright. I didn't realize that my request might have sounded like a demand. I may think about rephrasing it. Thank you.
