Because You Love


Because you love someone doesn't mean they are your slave

It doesn't mean they answer your every want

It doesn't mean you control them

You love because it gives a mutual happiness

Because you trust them with your heart

Love is earned not expected

You learn who they are

Time is needed

Needed to create

A special bond not even time can break

Love is trust

Love is trying

Love is what can hold life together

You are loved from the day you are born until death takes you

Your life is made of the love surrounding you

Love is not always the answer because sometimes it hurts

When the ones we love leave it breaks us

It’s not always bad sometimes it’s a lesson

Love teaches us a life long session

It makes the world shine bright with happiness

Even better, it fills your life with the wonder of love
