#BecauseILoveYou


Because I love you,

I've sat awake at night listening to your day and wondering about tomorrow,

I've walked along boardwalks in silence wondering if you're happy,

I've made breakfast with you and danced in the kitchen just because we could,

I've written about you even if it's a little sappy,

Because I love you,

I've spent hours in the library pretending to do homework I've already done just to hang out with you,

I've wondered if you'll be happy when you wake up,

I've ignored you when you wanted to be left alone and skyped you until 3am when you didn't,

I've never cried, but I've been close when you said you weren't okay

Because I love you,

I've never told you so,

And probably never will,

but know that I do and many others do too,

and that we always will!
