All Because I Love You


Because I love you,
I should not be afraid to hold your hand.
I should not feel pressured by society 
to keep our relationship private. 
Showing my affection for you
should not make me uneasy. 
 
Because I love you, 
I should not care about what others say
for you are the love of my life. 
You are what keeps me going
when everyone else tears me down. 
Love is love and will always be so
and my love for you is valid. 
 
Because I love you,
I will always be here for you.
I can talk to you about anything
and know that you will never judge me.
I can tell you about my past
knowing that you are forever my future. 
 
Because I love you, 
I trust you with my darkest thoughts.
I do not hide anything from you
as I want to give you my all. 
I can trust you with anything
and be sure that you will still be here tomorrow. 
 
Because I love you, 
everything negative goes away when I see you. 
You hold me close and tell me 
that everything is going to be okay. 
I hold you close and tell you 
that you can get through this.

All because I love you.
