Being Loved
Intimacy is not just about sex. Intimacy is not just about touch.
It’s a gentle dance between two sensitive and loving souls.
It’s an unspoken understanding woven through fragile moments in quiet spaces.
It’s engaging in gentle conversations, carefully choosing each word wisely…
And knowing silence is never awkward, but sacred.
It’s your eyes meeting across the room, each holding a thousand unspoken assurances.
It’s noticing the tremor in each others voice, or the subtle shift in their gaze responding with soft words or a steady hand.
It’s feeling safe enough to unravel vulnerabilities knowing their heart will be cared for gently, precious and breakable.
It is staying up late sharing childhood stories and secret fears… voices dipping into whispers as the world falls away…
It is being able to cry without shame… sitting in silence without feeling it… holding each other without a need for fixing…
It’s being patient while navigating triggers… and willingness to listen even when it’s uncomfortable…
It’s courage to apologize when words come out wrong.
It’s the deep exhale of being fully seen and heard…
And always being softly and fully loved.
In Love and Light,
Steve
