Because I Love You


Because I Love You

Staring into those eyes,

Shinning brighter than the stars of night.

I bathe you in warmth and compliments,

But sometimes they make you cry.

Promises of happiness,

Nights of sorrow,

All that uttered is:

"I love you."

The warm words that kept him bright,

Now pains the soul;  

Seeing him suffer,

When one once shined,

Ive let him go,

"Why..." 

Because I love you...
