Because I Love You.......


I yell at you because I love you...

I hit you because Its a way to descipline you and make you better and I do this

because I love you...

I mention  how big of a mistake you are and point out your failures as motivation

because I love you...

I tell you that no one else loves you as much as I do and no one never will.

I make you feel like everyone else is out to get you because I want to "protect" you

from the world because I love you...

I dont trust you and make you feel like you can't do anything without being

up to no good but that's only because I love you...

Too many of us grew up thinking that was love. Believing that that's how it goes.

Started mixing love and hate like red and blue sand. When you mix the two it becomes

inseperable and you can't tell them apart. But this isn't real love

Real love is....

Helping you build your confidence because I love you...

Making you feel safe no matter what because I love you...

Trusting you and giving you no reason to doubt trusting me because I love you...

Helping you love yourself as much as I love you because you and everyone else

deserves to be loved like this.
