i don't want someone who can buy fancy cars or clothes or big houses with huge windows and overpriced paintings
i don't want someone who can always sweep me off of my feet and i don't want someone who feels like they can't express their pain to me because they feel the need to always be the one keeping me strong, even when their spines are close to snapping
i don't want someone who feels the need to have a fit body or a tux to impress me when i can marvel at the sight of their messy hair in the mornings
i don't need someone who always needs to build me and get nothing in return; i don't need someone who feels so drowned by me that they are breaking themselves; i don't need someone that is so intoxicated on making me feel like a princess when they feel worthless themselves
i won't allow someone to 'love' me so much that their own minds are programmed to think that what i am feeling and what i am thinking is always the most important thing above anything else
these are all great things
but i need someone who not only builds me, but can simply build with me
and i need someone who knows that the only thing that i need is honesty and respect
because i will think that you're perfect no matter the amount of money in your pocket, the brand that you wear, or even the wheel that you sit behind
-and that is when you will find the perfect love
