Getting it Right

Getting love right after every failed attempt!!!

I stumbled through the heartaches,
through the almosts and the pain,
through the lovers who were lessons
I never asked to learn again.

I patched myself with hope
even when hope felt thin,
wondering if real love existed
or if I’d ever trust again.

But then you came so quietly—
not a storm, but a steady light,
the kind that doesn’t flicker
when the world goes dark at night.

You didn’t ask me to be perfect,
just honest, brave, and true.
You held the pieces gently
and helped me see them new.

And suddenly it made sense—
why every wrong love had to fall:
so I’d be free, and open,
and ready when you came to call.

Now I know what right feels like—
not fireworks that quickly fade,
but warmth, and peace, and certainty,
in the love that we’ve now made.

After every broken chapter,
and every tear I had to write,
I finally found the ending
where everything feels right. 💜
