Why?

Because I want to,

Because it's fun,

Because it makes you laugh,

Because I want you to be happy,

Because I like you,

Because we are friends.

Why?

Because I choose to,

Because it lifts your spirit,

Because your face lights up when you smile,

Because your voice is music to my ears,

Because I want you to look at me,

Because my heart skips a beat when you do,

Because I never want to let you go,

Because you are special...

Because I love you.

Why?

Because I can,

Because I will,

Because it drives you insane,

Because I want you to weep,

Because I relish your pain,

Because I am bitter,

Because I want you to hurt as I did,

Because I am angry,

Because I cannot swallow this lump in my throat,

Because my eyes cannot stop leaking tears,

Because I am choking back sobs,

Because of you.

Because you broke me...I hate you.

Why?

Because I breathe,

Because I feel,

Because I am alive.

Why?

Just...

Because.
