Truly

If you truly loved me,

You’d show it in your eyes,

Not just in the words you speak,

But in the silence that defies.

If you truly loved me,

Your touch would ease my fear,

Not leave me waiting, longing,

For affection to appear.

If you truly loved me,

You’d hear the things I say,

Not just brush them off as noise,

But listen in your own way.

If you truly loved me,

You’d stay when things get hard,

Not turn away in moments gray,

Leaving me with shards.

Love isn’t just in promises,

Or in the fleeting smiles,

It’s in the everyday moments—

The little things, the miles.

So if you truly loved me,

You’d show it with your soul,

In every glance, in every touch—

That’s how love makes us whole.
