Maybe It's Just Because

Maybe it's your compassion towards your elderly mother
Even though she's demanding and critical of your deeds
You continue to be available.

Maybe it's that you're always doing for others
And never asking for anything in return
Not because you want them to like you
But because you love them.

Maybe it's the love you have for children
And the joy in their eyes when they see you.
Maybe it's the way your eyes laugh.
Maybe it's because my dog jumped in your lap the first time she saw you.

Or

Maybe it's just because I love you.
