A love that is quiet but everlasting,
without the fairy tale-ish, grand proposals in theatrics,
without fluff, decorations, and exaggerations -
is the kind of love I love to keep.
A love that reserves a part of me
only for your eyes to see
when the world thinks
I am all but what's written like my stories.
A love that creates a cocoon shelter
with just your arms for cover
when the world misjudges
and I am all exposed.
A love that makes my rest
only with your heart to mend it
when the world offers
nothing but schemes and heartaches,
A love that is quiet but everlasting,
with just the two of us to share it like a secret,
with the serenity and faith of it being true -
is the kind of love I love to keep with you. #
