The dusk was fading like a quiet drum
The twilight calling every heartbeat numb
Yet in your shadow something bright became—
A golden warmth that whispered out my name
You moved and all the colors learned to rise
The crimson clouds revived the weary skies
I watched the day return within your eyes
A promise written where the morning lies
Your silence tendered comfort through the air
A lullaby unbroken kind and rare
It cleared the dust from memories I wear
And gave them space to breathe without despair
So when the night and trembling hours come
And cold eclipses all I might become
I’ll stand where you once stood—my fears undone—
For even in your shadow lives the sun
