Not Because I Love You


Because I love you,

I ask questions

Career,

Favorite Restaurants,

Favorite types of gum,

Annoying siblings,

Your life.

Because I love you, 

I respect

Your body,

Your family,

Your friends,

Your opinions,

You. 

Because I love you, 

I support in

Failures,

Successes,

Times of harship, 

Bliss,

Everything.

Because I love you,

I...

Because I love you.

Just because I love you.

No.

Not because I love you,

Because I am a human being,

I am...

respectful, supportive, caring, interested.

Because we're the same.
