Because I Love You

a hot Tension has risen 

sidely, we glare at each other

Jaws clenched 

Face's red 

 

Static in the Air

suddenly disappeared with a Snap

a knife slicing through the thick atmosphere

as we realize 

what is the point of fighting like this  

 

because Love is not-

about winning the argument 

about hurting each other 

about who has the control

 

No, no- 

its about the

Compromise, the

Understanding, the 

Respect for one another

 

And we do this,

not for ourselves. 

But for each other 

 

Because I Love You
