If I Didn't Care (For You)

If I Didn’t Care

Hey everyone. Here's a poem that I wrote for my poetry class that I have this semester. I really like this poem. This poem was inspired by former professional wrestler "Leaping" Lanny Poffo, or "the Genius," to old-school WWF fans. If people don't remember those names, Lanny Poffo is the brother to "the Macho Man" Randy Savage, former 2-time WWF Champion and 4-time WCW Champion, and rap star (who's album I do have, if anyone wants to borrow it or listen to it).



If I didn’t care
More than I can ever say
If I didn’t care
Would I be here?
If I didn’t love,
Why do I still thrill?
And what makes my thoughts
Go round and around
When my blood
Just stays still?
If I didn’t care
Would it all be the same?
Would my every prayer
Be for your best interest?
And could I be sure
If it’s really love?
Could this all be true,
If I didn’t care for you?
If I didn’t care
Would it all be the same?
Would my every prayer
Be for your best interest?
And could I be sure
If it’s really love?
Could this all be true,
If I didn’t care for you?
