Because I love you 

was one of your most frequently used excuses.

You must not think I see 

your games

because I see the way your are playing with my heart.

The only time I said those words to you

was when I really meant it,

and didn't want you to get hurt.

 

the last three words in that phrase 

have such meaning to me and

you just threw those words away.

they have such meaning when YOU 

say them. they shouldn't 

coming from you but I trusted you.

I just wish you used the phrase

because I love in a better way than an excuse.

You hert me more than anyone else 

but shame on me for letting you 

inside my head and allowing you to use me.

 

Because I love you,

I will give you one more chance.

I will let you into my life deeper,

but the first time you abuse that I will leave.

Because I think you are such a great person,

I will let you have the pleasure of loving.

Because I Love YOU!
