"I love you" can't control me

October 17, 2017

Because I love you, you should let our bodies melt into one.

Because I love you, you should not feel the need to wait for marriage.

Because I love you, you need to say you want me.

Because I love you, you need to do what I say.

Because I love you, I should be able to do what I please with you.

Sometimes the words "I love you" do not mean love at all,

Sometimes the words "I love you" can hurt more than they are supposed to,

Sometimes the words "I love you" can be toxic.

I will no longer be controlled by "Baby I love you, please just stay".
