Clouds unravel over distant hills
pulling silver through the blue;
every step you take toward morning
feels like a path returning true
I trace the outline of your courage
how you rise when hope grows thin;
your strength becomes the tender lantern
lighting places I’ve been in
You break the chains of yesterday
teach my fear the shape of flight;
your kindness builds a softer future
from fractured fragments of the night
Across unknown tomorrows waiting
your spirit meets the edge of mine;
two travelers finding one direction
in a world that rarely signs
