I want to love someone broken.
Not because I want to feel better about my own fucked up life.
Not because I want to do charity work.

God & Man
I want to date someone broken because I want to date someone who understands me.
I want someone who will look at me without judgement when I cut another toxic person from my world.
I dont want to date someone who flinches when I talk about the abuse endured in my past.

I want to love someone who knows whatnotto say.
I could never date someone who has never been numb.
I want to love someone who has been bruised before.
I want to love someone who knows what its like to shatter and scramble to collect the pieces.
I want someone who has summoned up the strength to make it through tough times.
I dont want someone who comes from a picture perfect family.
I dont want someone who has had happiness handed to them on a silver platter.
I want someone who knows what its like to feel lost, confused, listless.
I want someone who has had to work for a better life.
Someone who puts effort into every single day.
I could never date someone who looks at me like a damaged damsel in need of saving.
I want someone whogetsme.
I want someone who hasbeenme.
I want someone who understands the world is not always fair.
Someone who holds on tightly to the good things without taking them for granted.
I want someone who appreciates the light in their world because they are used to the darkness.
I want to love someone broken, becauseIam broken, and we deserve love too.
