Never ( Poem )

                             Never

                                                      by Amy Stein

I wait by the phone everyday But you never call I get ready to go somewhere But you never show up I tell you important things But you never listen I say I love you But you never answer I write you mail But you never respond I ask if you love me, I ask if you care But you never pay attention to me. You make me feel all alone. You make me feel unloved. You make me feel like no one cares and no one ever will How can you do that to someone you are supposed to love? How can someone so sweet be so cruel? How can I hate so many things you do but still love you so much? Those are questions that will go unanswered forever Because I can ask and ask but you will never respond.
