A hush settles across the fading horizon
Painting the air in pale rose and amber
Your shadow drifts toward mine
Two wandering lines finding the same shelter
Long roads murmur beneath our footsteps
Old wounds loosen their grip upon the night
Every quiet confession spills into the wind
Cleansed by the nearness of your warmth
Dreams stir inside the fragile hours
Awakening places we once feared to enter
Your presence smooths the trembling corners
Encircling the dark with gentle light
When the world grows heavy with unanswered longing
Your heartbeat anchors me to a steadier shore
Turning forgotten sorrow into fragrant earth
Where our future begins to bloom
