Was it my desire to succumb to your mannerism?

 

Or was it the force you put upon me?

 

Did I truly believe in this romanticism?

 

The notion that my choice is void,

 

This kind of relationship is a terrorism.

 

Submission.

 

 

The notion that "because I love you" was a reason for disaster.

 

You misuse and misconstrue what love is suppose to be;

 

I should not be a slave and call you my master.

 

We are equals in a sense that our love could grow trees.

 

Admission.

 

 

Love is not about being perfect,

 

We're allowed to agree and disagree.

 

But our differences should not cause a wreck;

 

We must make promises that we can guarantee.

 

Recognition.

 

 

The most important thing is the effort we bring.

 

Even on rainy days I believe your smile is like sunshine.

 

The comfort between us ties us together like string.

 

Our healthy dependence is absolutely divine. 

 

Admiration.

 

 

Your intelligence is your best attribute.

 

You respect my knowledge and you take it into account.

 

Your level of understanding is something I could never refute.

 

Two intellectuals who's love can surmount

 

Any negative force that tries to uproot. 

 

Connection.

 

 

"Because I love you" I know of unhealthy submission.

 

"Because I love you" we can work toward admission.

 

"Because I love you" we can give recognition.

 

"Because I love you" I have admiration for your disposition.

 

"Because I love you" I am grateful for our connection and position.

 

 

A healthy relationship consist of those components and many more.

 

We must recognize the "I's" but respect the "We's".

 

We are a unit together and furthermore,

 

Both of our happinesses matter and that's what I adore.
