A LOVE WORTH WRITING ABOUT
I don’t want to be someone's short story,
in a tale they tell to all their friends.
I want to live in every chapter,
in a book that never ends.
I want to be the kind of woman,
that my partner can’t resist.
And deep inside I know,
this type of love has to exist.
I want a love that chooses me,
in both the silence and the noise.
In all life’s messy moments,
and not just when there’s grace or poise.
A love that will not fade away,
when our passion starts to slow.
But deepens with the years we share,
and all the ways we grow.
I want a hand to hold at night,
when words are hard to find.
A heart that stays committed,
even when the world’s unkind.
Not fairytale perfection,
or a picture-perfect view.
But someone who will keep choosing me,
the way I choose them too.
For love isn’t just a longing,
or a spark that we defend.
It’s waking up and writing us,
Again… and then Again.
