Because I love you

Because I love you.

Because I love you,

I will be kind in the face of rudeness.

I will forgive even if the world says I shouldn't.

 

Because I love you,

If you are hungry and ask me for food

I'll make you something tasty

and eat with you.

 

Because I love you,

I will give you a moment of my time

to listen to what you have to say

even if I'm really busy.

 

Because I love you,

I'll think less of me

and more about your wellbeing.

 

If you're safe, and at peace

then I am too.

I say these things

because I love you.
