because i love you
why do I stare into your eyes?
not with lust
not with desperation
but with a new found curiosity
because i love you
why do i willingly let you scribe your name into my fragile skin?
not with pain
not with regret
but with trust that you will always be here
because i love you
why do i hold you tightly every hour of every day?
not to hurt you
not to be obsessive
but to make sure you know i’m always here
because I love you
why so i scream at you to never leave me?
not to scare you
not to offend you
but to show how scared i am
because i love you
