To love someone
Is to love them
For who they truly are.
To love everything —
Every small detail,
Every quiet piece of them.
To know them —
Their favorite color,
Their favorite flower,
The way to make them laugh
When they are sad,
How to calm the storm
Inside their chest.
To be their support,
To give them
All of you.
Love is not just
Saying -I love you-.
It is showing it,
Proving it
In the smallest things.
Listening —
Really listening.
It’s knowing someone
Beyond the surface,
Beyond the glances,
Beyond the silence
Between words.
I loved someone once
Like this
For many years.
At least, I thought I did.
But maybe
It was never strong enough,
Or never real enough
To last.
I never thought
I could fall for someone else.
And that changed me.
A lot.
But I guess…
Maybe it was worth it.
And sometimes
You need time
To understand
What you truly want.
And now
I finally do.
And still —
I’m not closed.
I’m ready
To love again.
