Verizon Wireless Texting Phone?!?

I Am Going To Get My First Phone! But I dont know what to get. My carrier is verizon wireless and I would like a newer phone. (not too old of modles) It HAS to have a qwerty keyboard :) because this phone is for texting my friends! I dont like touch screens that much..but I don't need any of those fancy apps, or games, or internet for facebook..I just want a really fast and good texting phone! Thanks! :) <3
