Reason

Many times I’ve told you
I love you so much
I love your eyes
I love your hair
I love your personality
I love you

Many times you’ve told me
You don’t believe me
You ignore me
You hold me at arms length
You shun me
You disregard me

I do love you
It’s true
It’s not only because
I’m always with you
It’s because…
…
…
Well, do I really need a reason
Just to love you?

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
