All Because

A mom, not just a mother.

She wakes me up in the morning with breakfast.

She tells me about my undying potential.

She shows me how to be a powerful woman.

All because

She loves me.

A brother, not just someone who shares my genes.

He kicks the soccer ball around with me.

He threatens any boy who has a chance to wrong me.

He teaches me to hold my head up high.

All because

He loves me.

A dad, not just a father.

He answers all my car questions without being annoyed.

He shows me how to be strong.

He teaches me how a gentleman should act.

All because

He loves me.

A friend, not just someone who passes me by.

She embraces my weird thoughts.

She picks up my broken heart.

She shows me what it’s like to have someone willingly stay by my side.

All because

She loves me.

And I?

 I’d do the same for you,

All because

 I Love You
