Where the light waits

In a quiet town of passing days

Two hearts learn how to hope again

Not in promises spoken loud

But in the space where silence bends

A smile arrives like morning rain

No rush, no need to run

Just knowing someone sees the sky

The way another one does

Love is not a fire that burns too fast

It’s a steady glow, meant to last

Like a song the stars all seem to know

It waits where the light goes slow

Time moves on, the world feels wide

Dreams grow tall, then change their shape

But there’s comfort in a shared belief

That kindness is the truest faith

No perfect words, no flawless plans

Just hands held by the heart

Two stories walking side by side

Never needing to start the same

Love is not a fire that burns too fast

It’s a steady glow, meant to last

Like a song the stars all seem to know

It waits where the light goes slow

And if the night feels long sometimes

If doubt comes drifting through

Hope remembers quiet moments

And leads the way back through

Love is the courage to stay kind

To choose the good, again, each time

Like dawn that finds the dark below

It waits where the light waits—

It grows
