#BecauseILoveYou

November 4, 2017

You build me up and have yet to tear me down.

Your words are as smooth and as pure as white silk.

You curse the “men” that’ve soiled the feeling of love for myself.

I’ve never felt so alive.

Your words of encouragement helped me stepped out of my godforsaken realm.

I always ask why you’re so good to me

And you always say “Because I love you”.
