A quiet burning fills my veins
Warmer than joy softer than pain
You speak in glances—never loud
Yet move me deeper than any crowd
My days hold fragments of your grace
Each one carved with your embrace
Even your silence shapes my air
A hush that teaches how to care
Your truth unwinds forgotten strings
Restoring songs my sorrow sings
Shadows retreat beneath your sway
Granting my spirit a lighter way
Stay where my breathing finds its tune
Where love stands firm through afternoons
Not fire nor storm can scatter this flame—
You gave my heart a steadier name
