Because I Love You
I loved you,
The pain from the farthest part of my heart was heightened
I had learned to accept you for who you were and nothing more
You were the sorrow that lingered within my Egyptian silk bed spread
I love you,
It was you, not I, who loved less
It was you, not I, who never sacrificed
You broke the sacred code, and I paid the price
For loving you, I gave my life.
I will always love you,
Not because I have to, but because I want to
I am the one who got away, but my heart is bleeding
You beat me down, you threw me around
But when all is said and done, I am who I am because…
I loved you.
