Dead To Me Poem by Nikki Taboada

I Tried So Hard To Keep This Together
But You Didn’t So Much As Say Hi
I Pushed My Mind To Nearly Insanity
To Figure Out Why You Weren’t Trying
Now, I See
You Don’t Care
So,
I Don’t Care Either
You’re Dead To Me

I Tried So Hard To Keep The Situation Together
But You Didn’t So Much As Call Me
I Pushed My Heart To Near Fracture
To Figure Out Why I Couldn’t Make This Work
Now, I See
You Don’t Even Think About Me
So,
I Won’t Think About You Either
You’re Dead To Me

I Tried So Hard To Keep Us Together
But You Didn’t So Much As Lift A Finger To Help Me
I Pushed Myself To Near Suicide
To Figure Out Why On Earth I Couldn’t Stop You From Leaving
Now, I See
You Look Right Through Me
So,
I Can’t See You Either
You’re Dead To Me
