It’s never about flowers or fancy words.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IkNE7ZqHn
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOP6qVB3ky
Not even about saying “I love you” every day.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUj2mCPjjfQ
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQUxsKpQU8
It’s quieter than that.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUV15cILwgh
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡem2Wb1tvzw
Softer.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwXG6Nt5as
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIlqUrmPOt
But it stays with me longer than anything else.
It’s when he sends a message at 3 AM,16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NzByW45Qc
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGyWEXgo2D
just because he saw something that reminded him of me.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYjDNbU9jc
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4PegC9Dtg
He doesn’t say “I miss you” —16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIh3yWMLdD
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHM8iQxQdln
he says,16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6BR0YetVM
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OgGLQms0f
"I saw someone with your hair today. It made me smile."16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpuBK6KBim
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7b7VpPEHf
And I smile too.
It’s how he notices my moods —16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4w11ewOFDR
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwQXh7o9bM
even through a screen.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1I7lSCeMEx
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1ZOWOGLDX
"You’re a bit distant today,"16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEyIoxW4yH
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgECqIEsn7
he’ll say,16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8ip6ThUse
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDABrEotVJ
“Did something happen?”16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3Bob5TFSw
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQJiZwImRp
He doesn’t push.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMyKLlCyjD
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXOWseOLYw
He just waits until I’m ready.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOWHZ6o0g8
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBhI14gxdj
And somehow, he always knows.
He remembers my little habits.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngsm6cC6Va
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gkCGeXv89
Like how I avoid calls when I’m tired.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxNZsQE13V
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBR62Qrg7ps
Or how I overthink messages.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROBmaHvVIU
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsWSTzhatM
So he sends the simplest ones —16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDfkj7RwWM
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRUKqNbk6q
no pressure, no overthinking needed.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmGD2euwkn
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrcN6EOCfm
Just: “I’m here. Talk to me when you can.”
Sometimes, he shows me the sky in his city,16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8fN16ndD0
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqjLcEFThW
and says,16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQONmm5zAMi
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2NOl44K4S
"Do you think we're both under the same stars right now?"16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7jTHf8u8r
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡia6ZDwvFXL
It’s cheesy —16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOORIGF7pI1
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjMCjIGkCA
but it warms something inside me I didn’t know was cold.
He doesn’t send poems.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRdqULXY7I
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRm9kjlBvx
He doesn’t flood me with compliments.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GIMIpQ280
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ080rYvfnMW
But he remembers when I have something important,16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5t64m9RhG
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CxtkIJA8I
and says “don’t stress, you’ve got this.”16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5n72Rl3Ip
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnxNYBBe9y
Then he waits to hear how it went, like it matters to him —16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1ueSHqRLR
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2y8sEzREle
because it does.
He asks if I ate.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdMvMp2K9S
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hLNWwaG8b
If I slept enough.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3A5x1iB1y
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsV45HNzD4
If I took a break.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVw01Kr8Bw
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIa7bCke1I
Not because he’s trying to impress me.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtN6gsagZXy
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmNTFohnfd
But because he cares, in that quiet way that feels like home.
He doesn’t try to melt my heart.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8qGrK0Mjx
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlusZaZkr2
But somehow, he does —16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjWlhs0u95
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJ1fcbMIGP
one small, unexpected moment at a time.
And that’s what makes it real.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QlNaOAaLe
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDMIyxAcVy
Not the loud love.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCvOiLRouv
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VsVDdODmU
But the love that stays in the small spaces.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fioAlXEPf
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoztAhhoVpN
In a text.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8Rl3xcuoN
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrF1E6RnWNh
In a pause.16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXzub742pl
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNI7adCSNp
In the way he chooses me —16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHCsYQrBtD
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXi7FTDswtD
even when it’s not said out loud.
