The Shadow Kiss

The Shadow Kiss

Your love drifted in like a shadow,

Silent across the floor,

It found the place I hid in,

It opened every door.

Your eyes held restless fire,

Your breath carried a storm,

I felt the pull of danger,

And welcomed every spark.

You spoke in quiet rhythms,

You touched with secret heat,

I walked straight into your darkness,

With trust I never planned.

The night became our shelter,

The world fell out of view,

I let the shadows guide me,

As long as they led to you.

You carried pain like treasure,

You carried love like flame,

I learned the shape of longing,

By tracing every scar.

Your presence filled the silence,

Your voice changed every room,

I stayed because your darkness,

Made the light feel true.

My heart still aches for you,

My hands still reach your way,

The shadow kiss you gave me,

Still burns upon my lips.

So take my restless heartbeat,

Press it against your own,

Let darkness wrap around us,

Until the stars return.
