If I do a dare,
Then my peers swear,
They will spare,
My life.
If I don’t do the dare,
Then my peers swear,
They will square.
I’m so scared.
Who cares?
I cannot sleep,
I began to weep,
Who cares?
I can hear a voice in my head
Who cares?
I care
It’s us, your parents, we care.
It’s us, your teachers, we care.
The problem is,
Do you care?
Do you care where?
Do you care how?
You will end up,
Yes I do care.
You must not care because you continue to do those dares.
Yes I do care.
I will no longer do those dares,
I will no longer mind those stares,
Because,
I do,
Care.
