The planets travel around the sun <br />And the moon around the earth <br />The stars shine bright in the sky <br />Because this is how it all works <br />So how can you ask me why <br />When it is simply my nature <br /> <br />Would you ask my heart to stop <br />Or my lungs to quit breathing <br />You could try telling the ocean <br />To stop its heaving and hoing <br />I'm sure these will keep going <br />So I will continue on loving <br /> <br />You can tear apart a mountain <br />But the pieces are still there <br />I still remember it with care <br />Time is the record of change <br />Yet the laws of the universe <br />Will always stay the same <br /> <br />That is why I love you <br />And nothing you can do <br />Will ever change the truth<br /><br />Brandon Owens<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/why-i-love-you-24/
