The Key to Love Is Understanding by maja

“If afterwards I know nothing more about you than I knew before, then that will be small talk.”

I don’t want to be handed the script before the scene has even begun. I want love to sneak up on me mid-conversation, mid-laughter, mid-realisation that I want to keep knowing you forever.

True love as an endless conversation that makes you understood. But life always moves on and the need to feel understood is not a quest with a prize at the end, it’s maintenance.
