Between the Shadow and the Soul

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 8 days ago 1 min read

Verse 1

I love you in the quiet, where the tender secrets live,

In the spaces without language, in the gifts I cannot give.

Where the light and darkness mingle, where the hidden currents roll—

I love you as the heart loves,

Between the shadow and the soul.

Chorus

Between the shadow and the soul,

Where the deepest waters flow,

Where the truth is soft and holy,

Where the quiet lovers go.

Not in thunder, not in fire,

But in whispers soft and whole—

I love you in the secret place

Between the shadow and the soul.

Verse 2

I love you like the roots love earth, unseen but holding tight,

Like the stars love the horizon, disappearing into night.

In the hush of sacred longing, where the hidden stories glow—

I love you with a depth that lives

Between the shadow and the soul.

Chorus

Between the shadow and the soul,

Where the deepest waters flow,

Where the truth is soft and holy,

Where the quiet lovers go.

Not in thunder, not in fire,

But in whispers soft and whole—

I love you in the secret place

Between the shadow and the soul.

Bridge

No need for words to name it,

No need for proof or claim—

It’s the love that moves in silence,

In the spaces without name.

It’s the love that God remembers,

Where the hidden rivers roll—

The love that lives forever

Between the shadow and the soul.

Final Chorus

Between the shadow and the soul,

Where the deepest waters flow,

Where the truth is soft and holy,

Where the quiet lovers go.

Not in thunder, not in fire,

But in whispers soft and whole—

I love you in the sacred dark

Between the shadow and the soul.

Outro

So meet me in the quiet,

Where the unseen stories unfold—

I’ll love you there forever,

Between the shadow and the soul.
