K.P.F.

As it is written upon the gates of heaven

Unbound by the fear and the envy below

The phrase "because I love you" is not a weapon

But an honest assertion towards someone you know.

When a friend is in pain or in need of advice

Then you listen and rally to help them pull through.

What you don't do is stay when the going is nice

But then leave them the second things start to turn blue

And when tragedy strikes like a light in the night

That rips him from the earth leaving me sobbing on the floor

He would ask, if he could, why I'm so full of spite

And I would say "because I love you, but can show you no more."

Our mission on this planet is to love as best we may

While dishonesty and selfishness endeavor to kill our drive.

Thank you so much for teaching me, now all that I can say

Is from the bottom of my heart; because I love you, I'm alive.
