storge.

the unconditional, family love.

i don't know if i really have experienced storge in my life. i mean, yes i did but, i don't know if i always wanted to feel it. and sometimes i wished to feel it more than i did. this type of love is characterised by what we would call affection today. It generally makes us feel safe and cared for.

like when parents care for us and tell us that they love us. or when they come rushing in our room when we wake-up crying after a nightmares. i wish i had felt it more than i did, and i wish i didn't feel it as much towards certain persons to be able to leave freely without their ghosts.

i do feel safe around you, i do feel protected. but is it enough ? does it make up for everything that you did ? does it make up for all your mistakes and my blindness ? maybe it is enough to live with only affection, who knows, perhaps it is not that bad. i guess storge is better than nothing.

but do i just want to be comfortable and secure ? shouldn't i want more of life ? of love itself ? i don't want to be just comfortable with you, it's not okay. Not after the mess you made.
