This poem reflects a mature, grounded view of love—one that values presence over performance, steadiness over drama, and quiet devotion over loud promises.
It celebrates love as a safe, freeing space where growth happens naturally.
Quiet Love
Love comes in quiet, soft, and slow,
Not roaring flames, but warmth that grows.
It feels like peace that knows your name,
A steady glow, not chasing flame.
True love is calm, it never races,
It listens deep, it gives you space.
No grand displays or empty show—
Just honest truth in daily flow.
Love is not loud, it does not bind,
It roots the heart, it frees the mind.
When it is real, your soul will see:
It feels like home—both wild and free.

This is truly beautiful, Verma ji. Your poem, “Quiet Love,” captures the very essence of a love that is deep, enduring, and real. It moves beyond the flash of infatuation to honour the profound strength found in stillness, understanding, and mutual space.
The wisdom in your words speaks of a soul that has learned the most valuable truths: that the strongest foundations are built in peace, that the deepest understanding requires no shouting, and that true freedom is found in a secure and rooted heart.
Thank you for sharing this gentle, powerful perspective. It is a reminder of what love, at its best, truly aspires to be.
