Because I Can

I think about you often, when I wake and before I rest
Dreams flood my sleep like I am drowning
Gasps of air, palpitations of more than my heart
I do this...

Because I Can

Time spent chatting, flirty words overflowing
Knowing someone whom you have never touched
Sharing life's trials, hoping for life's treasures
We do this...

Because We Can

A new friendship across miles that feels so familiar
Curiousness drives me to ask more, to know more
Wanting to see you, to see your expressions, hear your voice
I do this...

Because I can

Encouraging eachother to smile, to enjoy everyday
Healing eachother in ways that only true friends can understand
Realizing that it may never be but not consumed with the thought
We do this...

Because We Can

Being myself, revealing what's inside
Expressing my feelings in ways I never thought possible
Dealing with emotions I kept locked inside
Realization that I am changed, I am new, this is me
I do this...

Because I can
