Because I Love You


Because I love you, 

I will not tell you I love you,

Rather I will show that I love you.

Because I love you,

I won't put pressure on you to do something you are not ready for, 

I will respect your privacy and give you space to tell me anything you want when you want to.

Because I love you,

I will try my hardest to tell the truth,

I will trust you with my heart in hopes that you will not break it.

Because I love you,

I will not come in between your plans to hang out with friends,

I will let you do what you need to do and still be here for you.
