Because I love you


Because I love you there is nothing in this world I wouldn’t do for you

You are my very first priority,the first and last thing on my mind

Because I love you I make time for you

I love to spend time with you even when we do nothing but talk

Because I love you I know all the things that make you happy

I know every little thing about you that makes you perfect to me

Because I love you all I do is talk about you, you’re the best without a doubt

Because I love you I also know the pain that words can leave on a heart

No amount of “im sorries” can fix the wounds of the painful words that the one you love with all your heart can say

Because I love you I know how to pick and choose my battles

Sometimes it’s just easier to bite my tongue and let it go

Because I love you I have become isolated, under your spell,lost in those beautiful green eyes

You want me to be all about you,so you’re my only friend

Because I love you I do everything you ask,I get you everything you want to make you happy

I give you everything and more,yet you manage to make me feel like I’m not enough

Because I love you I’m ruining my life

You’ve changed my perception of love into something so dark and sinister

Because I love you I have learned to forgive

Even if I’m always the one saying sorry for your mistakes,I hate to argue

Because I love you I can’t let you go

I’d rather be in this constant cycle of love and pain than to know the feeling of losing my first true love  

Because I love you, you’re the only one I see
