The Real in the Relationship
In our generation, we only care
If the relationship looks "good" for the gram
"Wait let's show off on Snapchat"
And let me tweet that your meeting my fam
But no one questions the behind the scenes
Is that healthy to you and me?
Healthy is listening and understanding
Not lying or cheating
But motivating and supporting
Not yelling and beating
It's about feeling the love
Not just saying it
About communication with each other
And not trying to quit
But when the relationship falls apart
and the abuse starts
take a step back
and find yourself help
"Because I love you" is no excuse
For the name calling
"Because I love you" does not
heal the bruises
"Because I love you" does not
Erase away all the mental and physical pain
"Because I love you" is nothing, if there is no true meaning behind it
It should mean
"Because I love you" I wouldn't keep you in confinement
"Because I love you" I'll keep you motivated
"Because I love you" I'd stick up for you
"Because I love you" I'd listen and comfort you
I'd do it all for you
"Because I love you"
