#BecauseIloveyou


Because I love you…
Anything goes and I’ll stay
Respect: a mutual

Understanding you
Isn’t too difficult, for
I love you too

Happiness is a
Side effect when I’m with you
Comfort me at times

You have a right to
Independence and Safety
you should feel with me

Nothing to hide. No
underlying Expression
Trust one another

Before I loved,
Without any of these traits,
I was a poor fool

To form a bond like
Love, without any of these,
Equals a curite bath

Exposure: risky,
Unhealthy and possibly
Deadly... that’s not love.

Because I love you,
I ask you to take heed when
You run into “love”

Patience, and Kindness
No room to boast or envy
Because I love you...
