What is love?


Because I love you I want to see you to succeed

I want to build you up high enough to reach the brightest star

I will be your shoulder to cry on

Because I love you I hope my name brings you joy

I want you to never feel like you are alone

I will help you through the storm

Because I love you I won't hurt you

With my words or my hands

I will always protect you

But most of all because I love you

I would never ask you to change who you are
