Emparadised in one another’s arms
John Milton, from 'Paradise Lost'
reassurance is so important to me, let me know what i mean to you.
i think falling in love is a never ending process because the love you feel for them is endless. you can't get enough of their laughter. you crave their warmth even when they are next to you. you discover new ways to adore them, you recognize new features and details to love. your heart continues pumping love. and you keep falling, knowing that their love will always hold you.
I need someone who understands that being soft with me is the way I shine. Treat me like the gentle and fragile being that I am and I will show you how strong and powerful my love is.
"people who care about you will refuse to leave you in confusion about how they feel, and will want to be as clear as possible by explaining their intentions/actions. even if they struggle to articulate things or speak up, if they care, they’ll make the effort to meet you halfway"
