clutches

the people who care will care.

they will sit in silence while you do,

and cast your sadness upon themselves,

because they know how much it hurts.

the people who care won't leave

when things can't be held,

the problems can't be explained,

nor the solutions found.

they will find their own lapse of the world,

one just like your own so that

you don't have to be there by yourself.

the people who care magnify themselves

in the most beautiful way

when they need to;

when you need them to be what you can't be

and do what you can't do.

they will try their hardest to be you,

because only you understand what it is

that keeps you down at times,

to the point where they cry for you

and drift into a quiet stillness as you do the same.

that is why i will never forget the people who care,

and will forever be grateful.

that is why i will care as much as they do.

it's only fair.

thank you.
