A love that chooses to love 💕
I want a love
where, when I cry,
he holds me gently—
not screaming at me,
not telling me what I did wrong,
not turning my tears into a lesson.
Just holding me.
Caressing my head
until the storm inside me
quietly learns how to breathe again.
I want a love
that sometimes feels like
a soft glaze of vanilla—
sweet, warm,
slow and familiar.
And sometimes
like dramatic drum rolls—
loud, passionate,
a little chaotic,
the kind of love that makes
your heart feel too full to contain.
I want a love
where intimacy isn't just touch,
but emotional availability.
Where vulnerability
doesn't feel like a burden.
Where silence isn't uncomfortable.
Where being beside each other
is sometimes enough.
A love with ease.
With calmness.
With the kind of presence
that soothes you
without needing to fix you.
A love where
we can fall apart
in each other's arms
and never feel ashamed
of being soft.
A love that doesn't only stay
when everything is beautiful,
but chooses to stay
when things are difficult too.
A love that chooses me
again and again.
And perhaps most of all,
I want a love
that doesn't merely happen to us.
A love we consciously choose.
Every day.
A love that chooses
to understand,
to hold,
to listen,
to stay—
a love that chooses to love.
I had a conversation with my friends about what kind of boyfriend/love they want, and etc etc. I just had this vision of how I want to feel when I'm in love, and as a result, I wrote this, although I took some help from AI to make the flow better!
