Words of Love


I. A word filled with possessiveness. Selfishness.

Love. A powerful word straight from the heart. Straight from the soul.

You. A word that does not belong to me. This one is yours. 

I love you. These words together make a promise. A promise to only you.

 

Because. A word that gives reason. An explanation.

Because I love you. An explanation for a promise I made.
