Staying True

Because i love,

A phrase used in so many ways

That many get confused

At the manners of those using it these days.

Using it in ways that 

seem endearing to your ears

but, alas, are just distracting you

 from realizing your biggest fears

That in fact they are using

and abusing your tender heart

leading what once was a sweet person

to slowly come apart

Those who use the phrase correctly

are the ones who stay true

never actually using the words

but instead proving that they do

Through words like

"Girl, i miss you, lets chill and catch up"

or "Bro, i heard you fell on hard times,

Anything i can do to help you up?"

They do things that no one asked for,

simply feeling that they have to

Wanting to help someone they truely love 

Without putting up an act for you

Worrying if youve eaten

or if you are depressed

wanting nothing but your smile

to be always shining best

That is a what you call a friend

someone who is always true

compared to one who acts

and says sweet lies through and through

Those who treat you kindly

should easily stand out, too

Because everytime you look at them

They should embodie the words "Because i love you."
