Because I love you

 

We wake up to rain smacking the window.

I look at you and you at me.

In your eyes I find it, Sanctuary.

Your hand slides into mine and mine into yours

And you whisper it.

I love you…

 

Because I love you,

I would wake up at 3 AM when you’re wasted and need someone to talk to.

Because I love you,

I will be there for you at your lowest of low and your highest of highs.

Because I love you,

I would drive to the ocean just to watch the sunset.

For you, I’d drive from the Pacific to the Atlantic just to watch a sunset.

Because I love you,

I would listen to your favorite playlist while you’re gazing at the stars and me at you.

Because I love you,

I would make you your favorite coffee for breakfast and your favorite tea at night.

Because I love you,

I would sacrifice all my weekends to stay in with you.

Because I love you,

I will support your wildest dreams.

Because I love you,

I introduced you to my parents

And my god! They love you just as I.

Because I love you,

I embrace all your flaws.

Because I love,

We will make it through this.

 

And lastly, I love you because you are you.

 

And there we were,

two humans... madly in love.
