The Quiet Side of Love.

They may not say “I love you” out loud,

Not with roses, or gifts, or standing proud.

But love still lives in what they do,

In little things they do for you.

They remember your tea without asking twice,

They notice when your tone isn’t nice.

They bring you water when you’re feeling low,

They listen more than they let it show.

They ask, “Did you eat?” when you forget,

They stay calm when you’re full of regret.

They sit in silence when words won’t come,

And hold your hand when your heart feels numb.

They won’t post poems or make a scene,

But they’ll stand by you when days aren’t clean.

They won’t promise stars or the moon above,

But they’ll prove, every day, quiet love.

They celebrate when your dreams take flight,

Even when their own heart feels tight.

They smile when you shine, hide their pain,

Because love means cheering through your gain.

They won’t always text you night and day,

But they’ll show up when skies turn grey.

They’ll wait outside when you’re running late,

Or share your silence at the gate.

They won’t always say the perfect thing,

But they’ll patch the hole, sew the string.

They’ll offer warmth when the world feels cold,

And keep your secrets, safely untold.

They’ll challenge you when you’re not right,

But still hold you through the fight.

They’ll guide you when you’re lost or blind,

But never leave your side behind.

So don’t just look for hearts that shout,

Love often walks, it doesn’t pout.

It’s in the soft, unspoken ways,

The quiet care that always stays.

Because not all love is loud or bright,

Some love just stays through

darkest night.

It may not sparkle, shine, or show—

But it’s the kind that helps you grow.

So if you see this kind of love today,

Hold it close—don’t push it away.

For the ones who love in quiet style,

Are often the ones who stay a while.
