The Things I'll Do for You

Sun, 11/05/2017 - 17:17 -- _arxv

You were supposed to feel like you were walking on clouds 

Not like you were walking on eggshells 

You were supposed to feel butterflies in your stomach every time you guys were together 

Not because you were afraid of them, but because you were genuinely happy to be with them 

So, because I love you, I will make sure you never feel like that again.  

Because I love you 

 I will hold you when you are falling apart, I will not let your pieces fall on the ground 

You don’t have to worry about lonely nights 

You will never feel alone by my side. 

Because I love you 

Your pain will be my pain 

I will wipe the tears that run down your cheeks  

And when you are feeling down, 

I will be there to remind you how strong you are. 

Because I love you 

I will help you grow as a person, I will water you everyday  

I will push you to do your best, you are destined to be great 

I will help you discover new things about yourself 

And I'll hold your hand throughout the way. 

Because I love you 

I will tell you every day how amazing you are  

And how mesmerized I am by you 

I see past your flaws, they don’t define who you are. 

Because I love you 

I will not question your loyalty 

I will give you all of my trust 

Our bond is that strong. 

Because I love you 

I will not restrict you from seeing your friends 

I know I am not the only one you are loved by 

We all see your worth. 

Because I love you 

I will not use my words as blades and cut you with them 

Instead I will use them to nurture you 

Every word will be full of love.  

Because I love you 

I will treat you with kindness and respect 

I will build you up, not bring you down 

I will make sure there is a smile on your face 

I will give you warm kisses and hugs 

And I’ll always make sure that you feel safe.  

Because I love you 

I will tell you I love you every day 

I will not let you forget that you are loved 

Don’t ever think it’s any other way.
