I will always care too much,
Never too little, never halfway.
I won't lie to you—what you do
Echoes inside of me,
I can't just brush it away like dust.
Your actions matter, they ripple through me,
Because when I love, I love with everything.
I don't love with my heart—
One day that heart will stop beating.
I don't love with my mind—
Thoughts can be fleeting, lost to time.
No, I love with my soul.
Because when I'm gone,
When my body fades,
My soul will linger, still loving,
Still holding those I cared for close.
I love with what is eternal,
With what never breaks or fades,
Because my soul knows no limits,
And neither does my love.
