You asked me the other day, my dear friend, How come I: Think of you, Worry about you, Care for you? Feel your grief and partake in your joy? Share your dreams and face your fears? You were not able to understand the reason I stand by your side In moments of: Success and failure Laughter and tears In sickness and in health In celebration and in mourning You wanted to know why: Gave you food and shelter? Never abandoned you but became your companion? Now the time has come for me an Answer to give: It is simply because I LOVE YOU! © Demetrios Trifiatis 21 August 2018
