On the Contrary

"Because I love you.."

That shouldn't be an excuse, for the daily physical and mental abuse.

NO. On the contrary, these words should symbolize the unity and support that we bring to each other.

These words should show how much we love one another.

These words should prove that even if I am here and you are there, that between us there is no spiritual space.

Do you get it? 

No. Spiritual. Space. 

Still not ringing a bell? 

Well, even if we are millions or trillions of miles apart, our hearts should know better. 

They should know better than to doubt & point a finger.

They should have no doubt that we both hit a dinger.

That we are both sincere, that we are BOTH here to be the solid stone at the other's corner.

These words should bring the sunshine to the cloudy day, not the cloudy day to the sunshine.

Repeat after me,

Because I love you, I will never leave you to crumble behind alone.

Because I love you, I am here to keep your weakening legs upright when you no longer have the strength to hold.

Because I love you, I will trust you & I will build you up.

 

Because I love you..
