#Because I love you


Its because I love you that I hate to check your phone, 

youre not my child, my kid, or something I own. 

Its because I love you that I respect when you say no,

Im not entitled to your body ,your heart ,or the strength in your bones.

The way we talk to eachother and share our dreams, the way we love and make the things we want a reality

The things we do togather and treat us as a team.

No distrust or insecurities just love and lust.

 Its because I love you that it isnt easy to let go,

that I constantly ask whats wrong when your angry. 

Its because I love you that I keep my cool,

even when you do weird or annoying things. 

I dont treat you like a possesion you understand youre mine, 

I dont treat you like an option you understand that there is no choice. 

You ask me why I stare, You ask me why im smiling, You ask me why we never fight argue or disagree,

And its because I love you.
