Let me tell you
the kind of love I want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not the loud kind.
Not the one that hurts and then apologizes.
Not the one that makes me feel like I\u2019m too much
for asking to be treated gently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want a patient love.
The kind that waits.
The kind that doesn\u2019t rush my healing
or punish me for growing slowly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want a peaceful love.
One that feels like rest,
not something I have to recover from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want someone who listens.
Not just nodding,
not just waiting for their turn to speak,
but actually hearing me.
Hearing what I say
and what I struggle to say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want a love that cares.
Not only when it\u2019s convenient,
but when I\u2019m quiet,
when I\u2019m tired,
when I don\u2019t have my strength together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want a love that is intentional.
The kind that chooses me on purpose.
Interested.
Present.
Not guessing.
Not unsure.
Not halfway in and halfway out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want to feel valued.
Not tolerated.
Not kept around.
Chosen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want to feel seen.
Really seen.
Not just for who I am right now,
but for who I\u2019m trying to become.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want someone who reminds me of my worth,
not by controlling me,
but by believing in me.
By speaking life into me
even on the days I forget myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want a love that cares about my growth.
Not one that gets comfortable with my current version
and asks me to stay the same
so they can feel safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want a love that wants me to grow,
even when growth changes things.
Even when it\u2019s uncomfortable.
Even when it requires patience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want a love that makes me better,
not bitter.
Stronger,
not scared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want a love built on loyalty.
The kind that stays
not because it has to,
but because it wants to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want friendship.
The kind where we laugh freely,
where honesty doesn\u2019t feel dangerous,
where disagreement doesn\u2019t turn into distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want honesty.
The kind that tells the truth
without breaking my spirit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want growth.
Together.
Side by side.
No dragging.
No competing.
No leaving one behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want a love that corrects me with kindness.
That holds me accountable
without making me feel small.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want a love that is gentle with my healing.
That understands some wounds
don\u2019t need fixing,
they need time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I want a love that doesn\u2019t rush my pain,
but sits with me in it
and reminds me
I don\u2019t have to walk alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That\u2019s the kind of love I want.
Not perfect.
Not flashy.
Just real.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And if you\u2019re listening,
now you know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
