When a Girl Truly Loves You
A poem about being loved by a girl

When a girl truly loves you, She’ll love you true and well. Her heart’s not a finite currency, But an unbreakable spell.
She’ll tell you every — every — thing, Her wildest dreams and last night’s dessert. A mouth that’s moulded to the shape of your name, A kiss like rose petals wherever you hurt.
When you’re frightened, she’ll tear the demons in two, Use their skin to bandage your scars. She’ll sleep only knowing you know you’re loved, And you’ll wake to your name etched in the stars.
When a girl, your girl, truly loves you, Your mind will be the language she speaks. And in her voice your thoughts will spell, The kind of love the entire world seeks.
When a girl truly loves you, well, She will love you inside the dark. With her voice and her intentions —
— this love will leave its mark.
