Because I really love you


The thoughts that you don't tell me about

The ones that drip off the edge of your mind and make you weep at night

It is the lack of comunication, the sound of unnerving silence that makes it hard

To coexists with you

Do not forget to share even your most disturbing thoughts with me

It's because I really love you

That I really want to know

So I can hold you tighter, when you feel alone.

Do not forget 

How to act like a child

Even though we are considered adults

The playgrounds still ring true to fun

Hide-and-seek, Tag you're it, and the swings

Can still be our sanctuary 

I want to always have fun with you,

Even when we grow old.

Do not forget to hold my hand

Let us not forget to fight for our rights

For the basic human rights of those less fortunate,

Let us fight together

We are stronger in numbers 

Your mind does not understand misplaced judgement

I will support you on your way up

And I will never let you fall

Because I really love you.
