Because I love you


Because I love you
 
Love begins with our first breath, first touch
We are given love as a felling, a emotion, a security and as an adult we seek so much.
We began to warm to love with others by holding hands, the comfort of another, secure and safe. With another persons touch.
We tingled with our first kiss. Our love of life grows with this.
Love is needed, love is sought, love is found and love is abused. 
But for some people love a tool to be used. 
Love is given freely from the heart, Love is not something you earn.
A hard lesson many people never learn.
To say I love you is a common thing to do, but in your heart is it honest, Is it true?
Do they say I love you? Is it honest and is it true?
Your heart grows as it fills with love, you follow your heart like the wings of a dove. It flutters it sighs, it gets real excited.
It breaks so hard when it gets smutted, 
Where there was trust, companionship, and future dreams. you find lies, deceit and deception,  After you confront them with a question.
Because I love you I ask you this.
Do you love me freely or with a manipulating twist?
Do you love me for who I am, or use my love for personal gain for what I can do for you, is it a game you play each day with me as a pawn.
