Quiet Flame

You were calm beneath the noise,
A steady breath, a quiet voice.
They looked at me as if I shined,
But you were strength, the deeper kind.

(Verse 2)
You held your ground with quiet pride,
Refused to break, refused to hide.
No need for storms or showy ways,
Your strength grew strong through silent days.

(Chorus)
You’re the quiet flame that never fades,
The steady hand through darkest days
I chased the louder, brighter praise,
While you built love in softer ways.
Now I see what I missed back then—
You were my anchor, time and again.

(Verse 3)
I saw you raise your voice with grace,
Not loud, but full of warm embrace.
Your children bloom within your care,
You give your all, you’re always there.

(Chorus)
You’re the quiet flame that never fades,
The steady hand through darkest days
I chased the louder, brighter praise,
While you built love in softer ways.
Now I see what I missed back then—
You were my anchor, time and again.

(Bridge)
We followed paths that were apart,
You with roots, me chasing stars.
But when the sky began to fall,
You were the one who stood up tall.

(Final Chorus)
You’re the quiet flame that lights the room,
No spark, no roar, just gentle bloom.
You loved the hardest, in your way—
By showing up, by choosing to stay.
And if I never said it plain—
I’m proud of you, I always have been.
