how do you need to be loved ?
carefully , like a gentle rain on dry earth .
you’ve been left beaten down and by someone you really trusted and loved , so now love doesn’t come easy for you . you want it to . you want to love and be loved , but you’re not sure you remember how . so you need someone else to take the lead . they have to watch out for you , and make sure you’re doing okay , because most days you feel a little fragile , if not totally shattered . but someone will come along who will put those pieces back together again .
recklessly , like a horse running as fast as they can .
you’ve been told that the way you love can never last , and that heartbreak is inevitable . but you don’t want to love carefully . you want to love with reckless abandon . you want to love with everything you have , and you want to be loved the same way . you don’t want them to worry about tomorrow . make today worth living for .
casually , the same way you breathe .
you want someone who will see your favourite flower and will give it to you , without even thinking about it . you want someone who will remember all the little details about you , the things so seemingly unimportant but that matter more than you thought they did . you want someone who will still be there , thirty years down the line , holding your hand while the two of you do separate things . you want the intimacy of being known by someone who makes you feel safe . you don’t want expensive dinners or grand proposals . you want someone who will love you consistently .
