16/12♐️ :
I knew it was love when I found myself holding space in my heart for a man who hadn’t even arrived yet, but when he did, it felt like my soul sighed in relief. I knew it was love when the girl who always said, “I’m tired,” suddenly had the energy to dream, to give, to melt. When the one who never settles for less… finally wanted more, but not in things, in him. In his laugh. In his scent on my clothes. In the way his voice softened just for me.
It was love when I stopped needing to be strong all the time because his presence reminded me that softness, too, is power. I knew it was love when the silence between us didn’t feel empty, it felt like home. When I started talking to God about him… not because I was worried, but because I was thankful.
It was love when every time he spoke…. his voice sounded like God himself was singing me a sweet lullaby.
Love wasn’t loud. It wasn’t perfect. But it was real. And in my world of dreams, ambition, resilience, and rhythm, he felt like the only thing that didn’t need fixing. #OP:miss_chris_tiana, 16/12♐️.
