may i find someone who speaks love in my language so i won't have to trouble myself trying to translate them. i want a love that i won't have to beg for just to be treated right. a love that is willing to learn, not just hear. a love that makes mistakes but compensates. a love that makes me feel secure, not something that makes me anxious that i might be alone the next morning. i just want someone who loves loving me. a love that understands that love is not always 50-50. i might give more, most days, but sometimes it can be less. i just want to be with someone who chooses me, not because they love the idea of me loving them, but because they are willing to stay. someone who knows how i express care, learns how i ask for comfort, and memorizes what my silence means, and doesn't mean distance. someone who listens beyond words, who notices, one who meets me where halfway. a love where i feel worthy of being known, a love that speaks to me clearly, softly, in the language my heart already knows.
