Because I love you…

I think we should take things slow,

after all, I’m scared I’ll mess things up if we don’t,

Because I love you, I think it would be best if we wait,

after all, I want our timing to be right and I’m scared that it won’t,

Because I love you, we should be open about where we are,

Since we live so far apart, and I can’t see you as much,

Because I love you, I want to be honest,

I don’t think I can do this, I’m craving your touch.

But because I love you, we can work this out,

We’ll be patient with each other, we’ll communicate clearer,

Because I love you, I’ll wait out the drought,

And I’ll persist until the day that we can be nearer.
