Because I Love You


I have witnessed

distrust between those who loved,

felt the anger dragged behind them.

There are no words of our future

but now is now.

Know that I love you.

Because I love you,

there are times where we stray,

but we will always find a way.

I laugh and I cry.

You laugh and sometimes hide.

I want to understand

the sun and the infinite sky,

the rain and the thundering thunder.

All that you go through,

I will listen.

In everything and anything,

I find pieces of you.

I know you will do the same

because I love you.
