Dear Boyfriend


 

Because I love you

I couldn’t walk out the door

To see you smile and laugh

I couldn’t ask for more

You make me feel safe in your arms when I’m sad and crying

But sometimes you’re so far I feel like dying

You’re honest, you’re loving you’re caring

Best yet you don’t mind sharing

And because I love you

I want to do the same

Be your best friend, your girlfriend

And have no shame

Love is a goal many people want

It comes with happiness that will last you days

Or sadness that will make you gaunt

But you always know that they will stay

You love my crazy laughs so I’ll love yours

Because I love you

I’ll continue doing more

For what we have is love

But of course it’s not perfect

The love is strong and full of laughter

No doubt that you’ll never hear a cricket

Til the day we can no longer be side to side

I’ll cherish you as my lover

And to be your guide

Because I love you

And that’s the only reason I need

To explain all of my actions

Even if it sounds like greed
