Because I love you
Because I love you, you don't get to cry alone or smile alone.
Because I love you, in anger, I will take a walk. I would rather loose myself in exhaustion than you to my temper.
Because I love you, I will hold your hands during thunderstorms. Not because you're afraid, but because I don't want to pass up the opportunity.
Because I love you, I will listen to your crazy thoughts and weird philosophies at the most inappropriate moments.
I will love your family like they are mine because they are.
I wil pray with you and for you.
I will respect your privacy.
Because I love you, I won't let you look crazy alone.
I will do all I can; even when it means holding your hand.
I will let you win the arguments. Not because I'm wrong, but because you're the real prize.
Your dreams have become our dreams.
I will sit with you on rainy days to watch raindrops on the windows.
I won't walk away when all we have left is love. It's all we started with anyway.
I will fight with you, for you and for us.
Because I love you, we would always be the people that drive everyone crazy. Whether we have firm skin or grey hair.
Because I love you, I will still laugh loud when you fall. Even when I don't have any teeth left.
Because I love you, you're stuck with me. There are no holidays or sick leaves in this contract.
Because I love you, it'll be us. Always.
