Understanding of Love

 

When you love someone, 

you don’t try to change them. 

You don’t lock them in a cage 

made of words and threats. 

When you love someone, 

you try to understand.

You grow together—

 learning, stumbling, 

rising side by side. 

Your thoughts begin to intertwine, 

and suddenly, 

you speak without needing words.

When you love someone, 

you support their choices, 

even when you don’t fully understand them. 

You give them wings, not walls.

Love is not about lust. 

It’s not about the body. 

It’s about the soul reaching 

out and finding home in another. 

It’s about hearts and minds 

gently learning to beat in the same rhythm.

Because love is not made of bodies, 

or fleeting desire— 

but of souls recognizing 

each other in a language older than time.

True love doesn’t bind— 

it frees, 

and yet, 

it never lets go.
