Because I Love You


I cry when I'm all alone. I'm tired of everyone raising their tone. My heart is breaking, but noone can see. You think my life is good, but you're not me. The abuse at home doesn't help at all. I'm giving up. The more I cry the more I fall. I'm tired of shedding every tear, And going home just to fear. I run into your arms and cry. I tell you everything and not a lie. You take be away from all this pain, And let me kbiw my life is still to gain. You look me in the eyes and say Every word that makes my way. I ask you why you keep me here Because everyday you have to fear. Your answer is just for me. The one I needed to set me free. "Because I love you" is your reply, And then you kiss me above my eye.
