Don't Care

They don't stay long to see what breaks. 
They step around the wreckage like it isn't theirs.

They practice sympathy in mirrors.
Rehearse apologies they never mean.

Blame is something they bury-
Smooth the rug flat and call it clean.

They use your softness like it's temporary.
Like you are nothing.

They don't care.
Not when you're unraveling.
Not when you go quiet.
Not when you leave.

They repeat themselves-
same script,
same promises,
same replacement wearing your reflection.

And one day 
someone will hand them the same silence they served.

They'll search the room for an answer.

And all they'll find is this:

A room full of words repeatedly saying, "I don't care."
