'Because I Love You'


"Because I Love You"

 

I continuously make excuses to be around you because I love you.

I won't let anyone talk down upon you because I love you.

When I need support, you're the first one I call because I love you.

I bring you around my family because I love you.

 

I deal with your nonchalant and uncaring ways because I love you.

I gave my purity to you because I love you. 

I continue to take the verbal beatings because I love you.

But I have to let you go because I loved you...
