care.

I think I care too deeply sometimes
More than others seem to care
Their lives mean so much to me
But I feel like their life would go on just the same without me

I feel like I could leave and they wouldn't see
I feel like they just don't know
That life is fleeting and gone so quickly
And that it's okay, they can give me their heart for safekeeping.

I wish that they would hold my heart
The same way I would hold theirs
Treasuring it
every second I'm alive

I want to make a difference in this world
So that they'll see
The traces of my soul
Left in the creases and corners of every place I've been

I hope that when I'm gone
They'll think of me every time they see the sky
Because it will remind them
That I loved the sky

I care deeply
So much more
Than they could care for me
