Peace Is More Romantic Than I Expected

Dear Delyara, When I was younger, I thought romance had to feel intense. Now I think peace is more romantic than intensity ever was. To be around someone and not need to perform. To say the truth and not be punished for it. To ask for reassurance and not be made to feel irrational. To trust consistency. That kind of love doesn’t just warm the heart. It retrains the body.
