I've loved you
for being you
for showing me
how to be me

I've loved you
for loving me
for proving its possible
for someone to love me

I've loved you
for showing them
that they were wrong
and that my life us valuable

I've loved you
because of you
loving me
for me


You loved me
You truly did
until that day
when you showed me...

That apparently people can loose love and worth in the eyes of the ones whom they love.

So I am not loved
and I do not have worth
But that never stopped me
from loving you.

It's really cool how the pronouns are very general; I find that it made me more engaged in what I was reading because I could apply it to all sorts of things in my own life and writing.
