Is this Too much to ask though
I never wanted a perfect relationship. I just want someone to try as hard as I do. Time and time again, it’s the same old story. People say that I expect too much, that I can’t reasonably expect to find perfection, that I have to learn to settle for someone who is just ‘good enough’. But what those people don’t seem to understand is that it’s not about perfection. It never has been. I don’t need perfection. I don’t need someone to be perfect for them to be enough for me. All I’m asking for – all I’ve ever asked for – is for someone who will love me as much as I love them. Someone who brings the same commitment, the same enthusiasm, the same energy to the relationship that I bring. I don’t care about presents, candlelit dinners, or big grand gestures. I don’t need any of that. I’ve never cared about finding someone who will ‘tick’ all of the right boxes, or someone who will make a big show of things, or put me up on a pedestal, or worship me. That doesn’t appeal to me at all. All I need is someone who I have a DEEP and GENUINE CONNECTION with. Someone who’s willing to put as much effort in to making things work as I am. Someone who will LISTEN to me like I will LISTEN to them, someone who cares as much about me as I do about them. I want to be able to trust the person I’m with completely. I want to know that they have my back, and that they always will. I want them to TRUST ME. I want someone whose arms I can fall asleep at night, safe and SOUND, knowing that they’ll be there in the morning, that they’ll love me just as much, that they’ll laugh at my terrible jokes and at the goofy faces I pull. I want real love; I want a real, genuine bond. I want to be with someone for whom I’m their first choice, not second best. I want someone who loves me for me, who shows me they care. I know that perfection isn’t possible. I know that every relationship gets rocky from time to time. That’s WHY I want someone who is as willing to make things work, as ready to go the distance as I am. I want someone who I can depend on, who knuckles down when things get tough, rather than running away. I want someone with whom I can talk honestly and maturely about the problems we face. I want someone who knows what it takes to make it work. BECAUSE I don’t want a perfect relationship. I just want something real. I want someone who loves me as much as I love them.

I genuinely hope you find this someday. I found mine, so i know it exists out there. There are too many people who are hurting and cant be real with themselves about it, let alone other peope. Every once in a while though, someone comes along and decides they would rather put in the work to heal, than hurt other people. I know for a fact, there is such a person whos looking for that very same genuine connection, and is willing to grow and put in the work they need to grow together. Dont give up hope just yet. Keep growing, and striving. One day it will pay off with someone who will do the same. Bless

Unsaid.
There are a lot to be told,but I stood quiet, waiting for my words to sprout from the abandoned corners of my heart. But I'm aware that my voice only echoed in paper. Thus I left it all to decay,and glorified the beauty of silence.

A poem I wrote titled “Silent essence”
In the mirror’s shadow, I confront my form, No need to conform, no need to reshape. The lines, etched in the fabric of existence, Each scar a testament to battles fought, Each mark a silent echo of the past. I stand amidst the darkness, unadorned, A reflection of a world unseen. No... read more

Parking Lot
by 🌹 I’m always here, your quiet spot, A space you turn to, when she's not. You come and go, then drive away, I’m left behind at the end of the day. You see me only when you’re lost, A place to rest, no heavy cost. But I’m more than just a stop for you— I wait, unseen, my feelings true. I wish... read more

Soft Whispers ✨
"Soft whispers fade like twilight's hush, As moonlit shadows dance, our love's sweet rush. In secret gardens, hidden from the sun, Our hearts entwine, forever just begun. Your eyes, two sapphires, shining bright and blue, Reflect the depths of my devotion anew. With every breath, my love for you... read more

A poem I wrote titled “No revenge”
No revenge, because I knew you needed the love I gave a warmth you hadn’t known, a solace craved. I offered it freely, no strings in the air, Just a heart that hoped you’d find peace there. No revenge, because I understand the weight you carry— a gentle soul with wounds too deep to bury. You’re... read more

Rain
The land brims, yet unfulfilled; For it is in a timeless affair with the sky. Forever entwined, And yet bound by a poignant tragedy. As the somber truth settles in, the heavens mourn While the land embraces the heavens' tears as its own.

The 2 lost teeth
by 🌹 Two teeth met their fate, it’s true, In the chair, feeling like a clueless zoo. The dentist, a pro, wielded tools with flair, I just sat there, lost in a numbed-out stare. Now gums are on strike, and my smile’s on break, I’ll have to chew softer, for the next few days’ sake. The clinic’s... read more

Morning Breath and Daydreams
by 🌹 The sun peeks through the blinds too soon, I’m not ready to say goodbye to the moon. Morning breath, and sleepy eyes, Yet my head is full of daydream skies. In between sips of yesterday’s tea, I dream of where I’d rather be. A moment to pause, to drift away, Before the world calls me into... read more
