#BecauseILoveYou


Because you match my ethic

I knew I loved you

You wear my smile when it no longer fits my face

Cautious to embrace my flaws never to let them get in the way

Because I love you?

You shape the brightness of my day 

No one may understand my perception until I happen to swing your way

Because I love you?

You feed me food for thought when my tummy’s no longer grumbling 

And even when I’m mad you know it’s possibly because of hunger 

When my rest is no longer fearless

You grace me with the fuel of safety 

Because you love me right?
