#BecauseILoveYou


It's because, not despite

It's you will, not you might

It's forever, not for now

Because " I love you" is a vow. 

It's a promise, not a threat

It's a prize, not a debt

It's working through, not walking away

Because "I love you" is every day.

Let's talk it through,

It's worth the fight

Not fighting for worth

or words of spite

It's comfort, not pressure, you're wrapped in at night.

Because "I love you" is a privilage, not a right.
