This quote by Frida Kahlo is a powerful hymn to pure, bold and authentic love. It conveys a universal sense of the need for connection that transcends the superficial and touches the depths of the soul.

"You deserve a love that loves you messy, with everything and reasons that wake you up in a hurry, with everything and demons that don't let you sleep. You deserve a love that makes you feel safe, that can take over the world if she walks hand in hand with you, that feels your hugs go perfectly with her skin. You deserve a love that wants to dance with you, that visits heaven every time it looks into your eyes, and that never gets tired of reading your expressions.

You deserve a love that listens to you when you sing, that supports you in your ridiculousness, that respects you for being free, that accompanies you in your flight, that is not afraid to fall. You deserve a love that takes away your lies, that brings you hope, coffee and poetry."
Frida describes love as a feeling that does not seek perfection, but embraces "messiness", carelessness, immediacy, madness, surrender, and all this act of inclusion on the grandest thing in life, we accept served at the hands of our body's demons and feelings, lust and experience. It reminds us that true love is not an abstract ideal, but an embrace of all aspects of our being, good, bad and messy, stormy and unpredictable. This type of acceptance creates a sense of security and freedom within the relationship.

Frida, and not only her, but mainly those who dared, who did not foresee the "crucifixion", nor burning at the stake and lynching, excommunication and mud, cursing and lynching, describes love as something eternal and demonic that can "conquer the world" when it happens hand in hand. This is a vision of a love that not only supports the individual, but empowers him to overcome the limits and challenges of life, enlightens him to the dimension that love is ready to bestow on the one he loves.
She emphasizes the importance of a love that goes beyond physical attraction, including a relationship that listens, respects and understands the soul of the other. The love described by Frida is not only a feeling, but also an act: the one that listens when she sings, that supports being funny, that follows the freedom and flight of another. This is a way of saying that true love does not suffocate, but grows.
At the end of the sentence, she mentions "coffee and poetry," bringing a dimension of the everyday and a little romance. These are simple gestures, but they carry a great emotional load. Love is not only greatness, but also those small moments of care and shared joy.

This expression contains compassion, passion and a strong dose of rebellion that characterizes the life and art of Frida Kahlo. Living with great personal challenges, such as physical pain and troubled emotions, Frida experienced and sought a love that was as irresistible and imperfect as her own life.

Frida's expression is a call to seek and give love that is honest and deep, that recognizes and respects individual freedom, but that at the same time is built on a strong sense of togetherness. It is a definition of a brave love, that does not wear masks and that dares to look straight into the eyes of the other soul.
Because this was and this is how Frida Kahlo lived love and described art.
