I desire an esoteric love.

But I also hope for public displays of affection.

I want a multifaceted love.

One that is subtle, private, loud, and comfortable with undertones coloured and steeped in friendship, and warmth.

I hope my awkwardness paired with quiet confidence will find solace in the strength of your love.

Yes, I want a soft love. Soft and sweet.

That doesn’t mean ‘free from challenges and obstacles’, but, a sense of ease in maintaining love must be present.

I need an actionable love. Because love is an action verb.

I desire a love shrouded in arcane mystery like an ancient melody only we can hear; to dance to and sing along to.

One where only you and I are privy to intricate details between us.

Besides, love can be public facing and also quiet.

There’s a profound appealing subtlety to that kind of love. I want that.

I hope that your quiet strength and tender touch will find unrequited peace in the sanctuary of my presence.

May our love echo quietly and powerfully in spaces only we occupy.
