Because I love you


Because I love you, I thought you should know, You make me smile when I'm feeling low. Because I love you, and you know that I do. I've got a hug for each of your sorrows, a song for your woes. Love is a song that everyone knows, but only a friend can sing back to you when you've forgotten the words. I share my thoughts freely, and you share yours. Love is like an ocean, lapping at sad shores.
 
 Trust in me, and I'll trust in you. Keep your enemies close, but your best friends closer, because the only thing worse than a foe who knows few is a foe who knows you. I hold you up, assisting you skyward, I lend you my courage when you can't find yours. 
 
I don't care who you love, boy, girl, or both, just know that I love YOU always, and I love you the most. Boundless boundaries, endless devotion. I'll cross lakes, galaxies, or even an ocean, just because I love you. 
 
Love is radiation, warm and enticing, love is the glue that holds us together. I'll be beside you, through thunder and rain. I'll stay beside you when you're in pain, whether physical or emotional. Love is sweet when its new, and sweeter when its true. And know that I love you. 
 
 Be bold, be brash, because its no lie that your hurting. Love is the pill to ease your pain. Smile, even when you don't want to, smile, it matches your style. 
 
A friend is someone who makes your day, who makes you happy, who make you giddy and happy to say, "I love you dear friend, so don't go away." A friend is someone who saves the day when the rain threatens to spray. 
We always have a way to start a conversation, no matter the situation. Never afraid to ask a bold question, to let in to temptation. Because I love you, I can't push you away. I may make you angry (a lot) but that's okay. 
So indirect, but its coming your way. You know who you are, so don't go away, because I love you, forever and always.

<p>I tried my best, but it seems like I could make it a little bit shorter.&nbsp;</p>
