How does the sense of satisfaction, love, and security truly feel? It’s that moment when you finally have someone you can call mine, someone who makes you feel complete. Every breath, every thought seems to find its way back to him. Your heartbeat rises, your day which wasn’t going well a minute ago suddenly turns bright and joyful. You end your day with only one thought in mind: my man is waiting for me.
Whatever happens, you know you have his back and he has yours, mentally, physically, and emotionally. The confidence you feel when he’s beside you is beyond words. When the outer world feels harsh and confusing, he steps in and reminds you that you matter. That your existence matters. Your smile matters. Your thoughts matter. In the eyes of the world, you may be just another face, but in his eyes, you are his universe, the reason he breathes, the reason he feels joy and emotional peace. The days that once felt empty now hold meaning, simply because you get to spend them with him. The nights that were once anxious and lonely, when you hugged your pillow just to feel a hint of belonging, now end in his arms, wrapped in love and care. Years pass, seasons change, yet that smile, the one that makes you feel fulfilled, remains the same. You sit together in the courtyard, sipping evening tea, talking about the day you met. Or sometimes, you just sit in silence, admiring each other’s eyes, sharing love without words as birds sing, the breeze cools your skin, and the warmth of his breath reminds you that home isn’t a place. It’s a him.
when will I fall in love? And what will it feel like? Maybe when it happens, I’ll finally find a new reason to live. I’ll share all the pain I’ve carried in my heart, I’ll pour all the warmth of my care into him, and in his arms, I’ll build my home. He’ll understand me without words, and I’ll feel him without explanations... Under the shade of stars at night, our eyes will speak everything our lips can’t say. Sometimes, we forget if we can’t live our innocence and playfulness again with the one we love, then what kind of love is that? Let there be laughter, teasing, and little fights... and when tears come, peace should only return in his embrace. Because love isn’t proven by saying “I love you” it’s proven by being there, by walking together, step by step, heart beside heart, until two souls breathe as one. 💖
Just now, I thought... Love isn’t just a feeling it’s that one moment that compels you to long for your beloved no matter the circumstances. If they smile, your heart dances; if they cry, your soul mourns with them. If the one you love doesn’t end up with you, it doesn’t mean your world has ended. If they’re happy, and you can still see them smile, that itself is the greatest blessing the universe could give you. If your love is true, the universe will unite you maybe not immediately, but somehow, someday, it will make sure you meet. Love was what Meera felt so pure that she lost herself completely and found her beloved even in a stone. Love isn’t of the body, it’s a bond of souls an eternal connection that transcends lifetimes. And I often wonder...
