#BecauseILoveYou
Because I love you, I don't want you to leave me
I know it's too early for me to say I Love You
But...I really do
Love is seeing your face and having my heart flutter
Love is seeing you cheer me on when I overcome my anxiety, just a little bit
Love is the watching the sun shine over your face
It's all this and so much more
Love is not just about me though, it's about us
Love is encouraging one another to try new things
You made me try sushi and I made you go on a rollercoaster
We both threw up afterwards, but I loved you still
Love is backing each other up in stressful situations
Like keeping each other awake during an all day Movie Marathon
You kept me awake, as tired as I was. But I still love you
Love is being able to go a while without talking
Simply enjoying the pleasant atmosphere and hearing your heartbeat
Love is also being there for one another
And understanding that sometimes life is unfair
Love is going through long dark days together
Standing strong against disaster and personal losses
Holding each other down, keeping one another from falling apart
Love is looking into your eyes as you walk down the aisle
And looking at your back as we separate, never to cross paths again
Love travels across the sea and to the other side of the world
It's the cream in your coffee, the computer screen with a face on it, it's the letters I receive every Christmas
It's loving the image in the mirror and letting go of the past
It has no set meaning, giving it a universally ambiguous meaning
So, Because I Love You
I want you to find this poem and save it
To remind you that love is
Exactly what you make of it
