Lyric

Dawn is just beginning

And the warmth you left inside my hands

Feels like a quiet river of light—

Soft, but never wavering

When you smile

The whole world shifts its colors

Not into brilliance—

But like dewdrops sliding down a leaf

Gently healing a thirsty heart

I write your name

Into the wind, into rising tea steam, into the pale mist of morning

They never echo back

Yet they return to me again and again

Love was never fire—

It’s a tender, wandering haze

Wrapping around you, wrapping around me

Glowing where no one else can see

You said, “If you stay quiet, you’ll hear the heartbeat.”

So I closed my eyes

And two silent worlds moved closer

Like tides brushing against the shore

Your presence

Makes time soften, makes it wide and gentle

Every road I’ve taken

Every piece of sky I ever looked at

Feels like practice for the moment I met you

Love slowly grows its shape—

On shoulders, on fingertips, in every breath

It doesn’t need an answer

It only needs to be felt

If tomorrow shifts again

Then let your smile

Be the first light I wake to

May we keep growing, quietly loving

Within each other’s silence—

Until time itself has no more edges
