Poetry Day 7 - Just Because . . .

Yikes! I missed a day! I hope to catch up this weekend, so that means three poems in 48 hours. Can I do it? We'll see . . .

Here is the Day 7 Poem:

Just Because . . .

Just because I love you
Doesn’t mean I’m never lonely
And shouldn’t imply that I’m not scared
Or that I’m not insecure anymore

Just because I love you
Doesn’t mean I’ve stopped growing
Or ceased wanting to explore other places
Or finished struggling with who I am

Just because I love you
I know you feel the same
And are lonely and scared and insecure and growing and struggling too

Just because I love you
We’ll endure these travails together
We’ll muddle through each day
And become stronger together than alone.

This would do well as a greeting card.
