What I want from love

[readingredhead]

Someone to come up and hug me from behind, to whisper "I love you" into my ear before kissing the skin where the shoulder and neck meet--

Simple kisses that make me giddy--

Someone waiting for me when I get out of the shower with a warm towel and a warmer embrace--

Passion--

Tenderness--

Support for all my hopes and dreams--

A challenge, a fight, a struggle, but one that I win every day and that enriches every breath I take--

A little bit of a fairytale, in the Disney sense of the word--

Someone to read aloud to me until I fall asleep--

Someone who'll understand the way that well-written romance makes me feel--

Someone to talk out the hardest of my problems with--

Someone to share the largest of my successes with--

Someone to simply fall asleep with at the end of the day--

Someone to spoon up next to and feel utterly safe with--

Something that no one can break, or bend, or take away--

A partner, for better or for worse, in sickness and in health, not to be parted by death or by anything lesser or greater--

A part of my soul, my other half--

Someone to dance in the rain with--

Comfort--

Excitement--

Adventure--

You hear me? I'm waiting.
