我爱你，仅仅是因为，你就是你

《Love》

　　by Roy Croft

I love you,

　　Not for what you are,

　　But for what I am

　　When I am with you.

　　I love you,

　　Not only for what

　　You have made of yourself,

　　But for what

　　You are making of me.

　　I love you

　　For the part of me

　　That you bring out;

　　I love you

　　For putting your hand

　　Into my heaped-up heart

　　And passing over

　　All the foolish, weak things

　　That you can’t help

　　Dimly seeing there,

　　And for drawing out

　　Into the light

　　All the beautiful belongings

　　That no one else had looked

　　Quite far enough to find.

　　I love you because you

　　Are helping me to make

　　Of the lumber of my life

　　Not a tavern

　　But a temple;

　　Out of the works

　　Of my every day

　　Not a reproach

　　But a song.

　　I love you

　　Because you have done

　　More than any creed

　　Could have done

　　To make me good

　　And more than any fate

　　Could have done

　　To make me happy.

　　You have done it

　　Without a touch,

　　Without a word,

　　Without a sign.

　　You have done it

　　By being yourself.

　　Perhaps that is what

　　Being a friend means,

      Afterall.
