"Buckle up"
"Eat something"
"Sweet dreams"
"Go to sleep, ok?"
All simple phrases that most don't see
But the sentiment is there, and continues to be.
Light hugs
"Back me up"
"Think this through"
"Yes, I DO know you."
These are more obvious, plain and true.
But some times, it's hard to say "I love you"
"No"
"Stop"
"Wait"
"Don't"
"You can't"
These often hurt the subject, but the speaker's intent remains the same.
"Because I love you."
