Deadeye


Honesty

Trust

Open communication 

All important, but not all that matters

Goofy

Enjoyable

Passionate 

These things matter as it starts in friendships 

People tend to forget that they started as friends

Before they added “girl” or “boy” to the beginning 

If life is to be anxious and greedy

Then why must it be worth it

People say it’s love

I call it tomfoolery 

If your answer is “Because I Love You”

Then love them for how they are, not what you expect

Be straightforward, not cryptic 

Understandable, not difficult 

The one, not an attempt 

Let the words because I love you mean something

Not just an empty glass waiting to be filled
