I want a love that lasts the ages.

A love that others only dream of.

I want a love that brings only joy

and never endless pain.

I want a love that doesn't exist

and I will never find.

I want a love that...

Will make me and my heart happy,

That will make me experience bliss occasionally in my life.

I want a love that...

Will spend time being with me,

And will put aside whatever he's doing to be with me whenever I need him.

I want a love that...

Will respect me,

And who will love me with all of his heart.

I want a love that you read about in novels.

Not Christian fiction.

Not Christian Grey.

But I want romance.

Troubles

Disagreements

Conflicts.

I understand the reality. I don’t mind that. Neither of us will be perfect.

But we’ll both be the perfect counterpart to the other.

I want a love that is serious.

Serious means we though about it.

It wasn’t a whirlwind love, but rooted deeply into our hearts.

I want flowers

And evening dinners.

Candles and promises.

I want a love that exists in novels. It can happen, right?
