En 2025, quiero un amor que permanezca

There are too many things in life that don’t last and love shouldn’t be one of them.

I’ve already had people coming in and out of my life who were supposed to be my friends, I’ve had men telling me that they loved me in one moment and then turning their backs to me the next, and I had people who promised to be there just to go and disappear when I needed them the most.

This year was full of things that didn’t last. I’ve been put through hell by the people who should’ve cared for me the most.

My heart has been broken, my back is full of knives and my eyes have no more tears to cry despite the pain I’m feeling.

But, I’m not giving up. No, not me.

Elijo ser optimista. Elijo ser positivo. Elijo esperar la luz al final del túnel.

I’m putting all my hopes in the year that is yet to come. I’ve had my fair share of hell and now it’s time to finally experience the happiness that stays and a love that doesn’t leave me. That’s me, an eternal optimist.

Out of all the wishes someone could have for the year to come, I only have one—all I want is a love that stays.

I don’t want anything temporary anymore. I want a love that doesn’t leave. I want that para siempre historia.

I want a love that makes me feel like I’m good enough. Like I’m more than my mistakes and like my imperfections are not ever allowed to shadow my good side.

I want a love in which I won’t be mistreated for making a mistake, where my efforts will be appreciated and where I’ll feel like I am just fine in my own skin.

Quiero un amor que me haga sentir como en casa, un amor que me haga sentir segura.  I want a love that will be my safe haven, a love for which I’ll thank God each day and night, a love that will make me feel comfortable enough to be who I am, where I won’t need to put on any masks, where I won’t need to pretend to be something I’m not.

Quiero un amor en el que sienta que importo. I just need love in which I’ll feel like my feelings matter, like what I have to say is important,  like something would change if I disappeared all of a sudden. I want a love in which I know I’ll be missed if I’m gone.

Quiero un amor que permanezca, el amor con el que puedo contar. I want a love that will make me feel high, a love that will take me to the stars and a love that I’ll be selfish about and that will make me not want to share with anyone.

I want a love that cares, a love that’s honest, a love that’s there just because of me, a love that doesn’t treat me like a backup plan.

Quiero un amor que se quede para siempre y no hasta que encuentre a alguien más, alguien mejor.

Quiero un amor que prometa quedarse. Un amor que cumple sus promesas, un amor que permanece incluso cuando los tiempos se ponen difíciles, que sostiene mi mano a través de todas las tormentas y un amor que es mi luz al final del túnel.

A love that helps me when I lose my faith, a love that doesn’t allow me to get tired, a love that makes sense out of everything bad. That’s what kind of love I want in 2025.

Prometo dejar todos mis desamores en 2024. Prometo olvidar a todos los que me rompieron, me traicionaron o me mintieron y prometo empezar de cero cuando este nuevo amor entre en mi vida.

With this new year, I’m ready for a new beginning, a better beginning.

The year to come is about hope. And even though this year has left me bruised, even though I’ve fallen a hundred times, I managed to stand up and I’m still standing, ready to start from scratch.

I’m full of hope when it comes to 2025 because I know what I’ve been through and I know I get to be rewarded for the hell 2024 has put me through.

Siento que este año será el año en que las cosas cambien para mejor.

Así que, querido 2025, por favor, sé bueno conmigo.

I’m ready for a new, better chapter of my life.
