Because I love you

Because I love you

I want you to prosper and flourish

Your embodiment of youth

Your intellect and wisdom

Your health and luminance

Because I Love you

I want you to be near

I crave your scent

I need your touch

I desire presence

Because I love you

I want a future with you alone

Your sleepy smile every morning

Your squeaky giggles when I joke

Your warmth every night when we lay

Because I love you

I want to see you wilt and shrink

Your hallowed eyes and ashen skin

Your washed and warped mind

Your sickness and heat

Because I love you

I want you to leave me

I hate the smell you leave on my sheets

I flinch at your outreached hand

I shrink at your silhouette

Because I love you

I want to take a break from you

Your blank expression when we talk

Your mournful sobs when I strike

Your distance in our crumbling monarch

Because I love you

I hate you
