#BecauseILoveYou
I am an eagle in the sky
Coursing through the wind
Gaping mouth, swallowing all those who oppose you
All those who stand against you
All those who don’t love you
Because I love you
I am an overly large blanket
With soft white fur
Constant refills of fresh hot chocolate
That make your toes curl
When the tree leaves sink to the floor
Their original home
And when the summer breeze dips too low
I act as a furnace to your backbone
Because I love you
I am an insurance company
Because even if you get banged up real bad
I’ll still be there
To stand beside you
To lick your wounds clean
To dare to immortalize a mortal
To match my dream with reality
Because I love you
I am a needle
With the sharpest tip
To create any tapestry you sow
The pinpoint of your woes
The satchel of your untold inklings
Because I love you
Because you trust me
And make me happy
So so so happy
As if I am one with the galaxy
As if I am a mighty passenger in the great wide tapestry
Of our now conjoined lives
And the heartbeats that coincide
In our ancestors
Who continue to dance with matching fervor
Because I love you
And you love me
Because I love you
And I always will
