Care a lot.
  I care a lot.
  Not too much. Because what is caring too much?
  What does that even mean?
  Just like saying you love too much.
  Impossible.
  I just care a lot.
  And usually that leaves me hurt.
  Because I care more for them than they do for me.
  And that’s okay.
  I’d rather have someone be cared for than them not be cared for at all
  If i get hurt in the process then so be it.
  I’m used to being hurt.
  I’ll be okay in the end
  Right?
  I might not be okay today or tomorrow or probably in a year
  But eventually I will be.
  And it won’t be because I forgot about you
  I don’t forget I remember quite a bit actually
  I’ll always remember your favourite colour
  and the things that you hated that I did just to annoy you
  And one day I’ll wake up in the morning and realize that you were
  of course worth the pain.
  Everyone is worth a couple of sleepless nights and a few tears.
  People might say they aren’t but they are
  You are worth a little heart ache.
  Never tell me you aren’t
  All people are worth more than that.
  If Jesus died for you than you are definitely worth a few of my unimportant tears.
  One morning or sometimes it’s at night when I lay in bed and I realize
  that it’s okay that I care more than you do
  I don’t have to be cared for also.
  It seldom happens anyway.
  I might not get over it but
  I will deal with it.
  I
  always
  do.
