Wait for a love that arrives when you least expect it. Love that shows up at your doorstep on a cold wintry evening. Love that takes your hand and presses it against their chest until you can feel their heartbeat. Wait for a love that respects you. Love that doesn't make you second-guess yourself. Love that challenges you to be a better version of yourself. Love that believes in you. Wait for a love that is here for the long run. Love that understands the words 'commitment' and 'companionship' and doesn't make excuses for their mistakes. Love that trusts you and tries its best to understand your emotions. Wait for a love that is gentle with your heart. Love that brushes delicate fingers over a hand that has been let go of more than once. Love that knows how much you have gone through to find them. Wait for a love that is there through the difficult days. The messy days. The hard-to-forget days. The days when you are at your worst. And the days that are drunk on laughter and happiness. Wait for a love that holds your hand through it all, to steady you. To calm your pattering heart. Love that understands how hard it is having a soft soul in a world that constantly pushes you to be hard. Love that doesn't try to change you in anyway. Wait for a love that stays. A love that stays.
