Because I love you, 

I waited for you

Whenever you were sad

Because I love you, 

I tried to make you smile

When tears were flowing non-stop

Because I love you, 

My jackets are damp with rain 

that I put over your head when you needed safety 

Because I love you, 

The clock ticked slowly 

as you were off with someone else

Because I love you, 

You were happy and it made 

my heart burst with excitement that your eyes were brighter

and bigger as I wanted it to be 

Because I love you,

You loved me too
