Not Just Because

October 9, 2017

Pick me up

Not just because you brought me down.

Protect me

Not just because you were jealous.

Listen to me

Not just because I was talking.

Comfort me

Not just because you caused the tears.

Tell me the truth

Not just because I forced you to.

Accept my friends

Not just because you had to.

Help make decisions

Not just because you wanted it over with.

Share kindness

Not just because you wanted forgiveness.

Say you love me

Just because you love me.
