That Kind of Love

I’m waiting for love,
fairy-tale-happy-ending love,
head-over-heels love,
you know, that kind of love.

That kind of love
that doesn’t fall apart
because we aren’t being intimate.

That kind of love that pursues you
even when you tell it to leave you
because it knows that you’re lying.

That kind of love that accept your flaws
but at the same time
helps you to grow into a better person.

That kind of love that thinks of you
before itself
and always wants to give you
the best that it can.

That kind of love that forgives,
doesn’t hold grudges,
and never tries to pick a fight.

That kind of love that believes in you,
even when you doubt your own abilities,
and is your number one cheerleader.

That kind of love that never lies,
is always honest and doesn’t give you
any reason not to trust them.

That kind of love that lasts forever
because it knows love is not a feeling;
it’s a choice you must make daily.

I’m waiting for that love,
will-you-marry-me love,
until-death-do-us-part love
you know, that kind of love.
