May you find
someone who is gentle to you. May you get a person who sees you and figures you
out, only to be consistently kind and understanding to you. Someone who finds
it easy not to prod you where it hurts, and to respect that some things are
uniquely painful to you. Someone who has the patience for all of your triggers,
without trying to fix them. Someone who lets you take all of the steps in your
recovery on your own, but cheers you on, on every step of the way.
subtle intimacy is so soft. knowing someone’s routine and slowly becoming a part of it. memorising favourite teas and soups and drink orders. good morning and good night texts and messy paragraphs of love written half asleep. nicknames only you know. just small things that say “look how dear you are to me.”
