Our love is a quiet river
Flowing steadily beneath the surface
Carving paths through stoje without a sound
It's not in the loud decelerations
Or the grand gestures
But in the way your hand finds
mine in the dark
And how we understand each other's silences
You are the stillness in my storm
The unspoken knowing
in a crowded room
I see your strength when
you're vulnerable
and your heart when you turn away
Protecting what
we've built
With every tender grace
Evey shared breath
We don't need the world to know
How deeply we've rooted ourselves
in each other
For love like this grows in quiet spaces
In the moments too simple to capture
But too vast to
ever measure
And in this stillness
I choose you
