I Doubt He Knows

Have you no notion of the damage done
By easy touches and your casual smile?
Do you not know the pain you're causing one
Who cannot bear your kindness but a while?
May anyone request the troubled gift
Of your spent time and your attention, too?
Will every moment shared be cause to lift
Up hopes? Has it no like meaning for you?
Do you deliberate on what you say
Or do you freely spout off gentle things
To everyone? My nerves begin to fray.
I madden me with spiraled wonderings.
We should know better than to firmly pin
Our dreams on a regard so frail, so thin.
