sun in a pocket

i've been thinking

have you ever wondered whether you made a difference?
have you ever wondered whether you mean something?
have you ever wondered whether you mattered?

i wonder sometimes, whether i mean a lot to people,
whether me being there brings sunshine to their lives,
whether me being around makes them happier

it's how i feel about my friends

whenever i go to school, or whenever i go to work,
there's always days when i don't feel like going,
but then when i reach there, my friends are around

and it makes things enjoyable straightaway,
all of a sudden there's plenty to talk about,
and gossip about, and laugh my ass off about

it just, makes things better for me in an instant

so, they make a difference to my life,
they mean the world to me,
and in my eyes, they truly matter

someday i'll leave, and it would be nice to think
that i've done the same thing for them.
that i've been a source of happiness in someone's life

did you miss me when i wasn't writing?
