It’s never about flowers or fancy words.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkKphLg0bI
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvViB0ak8P0
Not even about saying “I love you” every day.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9sE46MPlP
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlz1nG858vp
It’s quieter than that.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJX2RUAZ0W
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOoumjSf99
Softer.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWSPLoYF1j
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvDpqlG4B0
But it stays with me longer than anything else.
It’s when he sends a message at 3 AM,6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqs1vilUk2
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyorSdaGLO3
just because he saw something that reminded him of me.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GsTOf9meN
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpqe8MNJIZ
He doesn’t say “I miss you” —6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74FsSs2rfz
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2uks3q77c
he says,6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcSjTSSLfC
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nvZpiReUs
"I saw someone with your hair today. It made me smile."6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8uHyuttul
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpJ5Zsi4zI
And I smile too.
It’s how he notices my moods —6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡce8p5zZLIs
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsJu19EvKy
even through a screen.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclqL8RSthu
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5JJvDhaff
"You’re a bit distant today,"6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCapKmuS8g
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISTZbWx4qw
he’ll say,6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQksNxwa13
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkikGelOE08
“Did something happen?”6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsa8ATR6WjE
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJlz1naJVR
He doesn’t push.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYRlRLHKEW
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsyba0PvJJ
He just waits until I’m ready.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMCzTMcMDD
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4f55f78N4
And somehow, he always knows.
He remembers my little habits.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMWtKS0Lrh
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29l0SEU6K8
Like how I avoid calls when I’m tired.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQtRbkGISZ
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXws16ZhkY
Or how I overthink messages.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAR0HnFPrOd
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0B5zvOiunk
So he sends the simplest ones —6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZNzH27Tsa
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxSylJ4Vu7
no pressure, no overthinking needed.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LRlcXdnDZ
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrlS7cCapM
Just: “I’m here. Talk to me when you can.”
Sometimes, he shows me the sky in his city,6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgKB9HoBja
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXUe3WStvy
and says,6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEjlExZWGJ
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcWNVgYoCI
"Do you think we're both under the same stars right now?"6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvebogYLEt0
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjygDhx1BKB
It’s cheesy —6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVWPXTpI9K
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0klakywHw
but it warms something inside me I didn’t know was cold.
He doesn’t send poems.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULzYna5oCx
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVJxJkggtU
He doesn’t flood me with compliments.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVaB735qqg
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQumWh9KQ2
But he remembers when I have something important,6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbPb7RAaER
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbq7XXV2UJP
and says “don’t stress, you’ve got this.”6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13uEBnkkOk
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6JIoLRmmD
Then he waits to hear how it went, like it matters to him —6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqGqnvwclZ
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJQyNVb6h7
because it does.
He asks if I ate.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQvl21dJl7
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1MIS6bHSa
If I slept enough.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZyGDJskQr
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBLco5e288
If I took a break.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNqSSBdaky
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8R5reUbSP
Not because he’s trying to impress me.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQ2WUpbGd1
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKShZrucvW
But because he cares, in that quiet way that feels like home.
He doesn’t try to melt my heart.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41Fm6OYB0A
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhootpADsY
But somehow, he does —6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8wj9xIDNg
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWugZjuAAX
one small, unexpected moment at a time.
And that’s what makes it real.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzp97EJKGZ
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9JGxwnoxv
Not the loud love.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PjN8HNuCb
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORAOujDV77
But the love that stays in the small spaces.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSecLW4kIGC
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wTSTG72Ww
In a text.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7CK4wEWfI
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsh4Tv5Dwfy
In a pause.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdr0nUKgvFC
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RONUEXSOV
In the way he chooses me —6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvQDFyvwPU
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55VXnQXMp7
even when it’s not said out loud.
