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
