#becauseiloveyou


Because I Love You

 

Because you are mine,

because you are yours

 

You've seen me at my worst,

and held me true

 

You've seen me real,

I am free

 

An open book, 

whose heart you so freely took

 

For us, life is good,

and it is bad

 

There are days when we question,

is this real?

but I know

 

You smile, you are my world,

and I can never leave

 

No matter how much we struggle,

we stay true

 

Because, when I see you,

I float

 

And when I feel you,

I melt

 

And when I have you,

I can see

 

I know life is better,

Because I love you,

And you love me
