Because I Love Her
Because I love her,
I will work with zeal;
I will be the breadwinner,
Doing the job so well.
Because I love her,
I'll be loyal and kind;
Ignoring temptation,
Never leave her behind.
Because I love her,
I won't hurt her feelings;
I won't be cruel and brutal,
I shall never cause her pain.
Because I love her,
I will give her no harm;
I'll make and let her feel
My embrace sweet and warm.
Because I love her,
She deserves due respect;
I'll understand her fault,
For no one is born perfect.
Because I love her,
I don't want her getting tired;
I'll help her carry the load,
Since time has not expired.
Because I love her,
I'll protect her all the time;
I'll keep her safe and sound,
With security so prime.
Because I love her,
Hers are small discretions;
So I will make it sure,
There'll be no big decisions.
Willing to offer sacrifice,
Even if I succumb to wear and tear;
I'll go with her to a grocery store,
Because I love her.
