AandK Breathe Easier

Night air…
Curtains breathing…
Your warm hands…
Around mine…
No hurry…
No fear…
No shame
Stay close…

You see the silver gathering in my hair
And call it moonlight resting there
You read the quiet underneath my words
The tender truth that no one heard
When old defenses rise without a sound
Your patient hands don’t pull them down
You wait beside me in the open night
Until my eyes return to light

No part of me must vanish to belong
You hold the silence, warm and strong

I breathe easier in your love
Like night air moving through the pines
I breathe easier in your love
Your steady heartbeat calming mine
Thank you for your strong, warm hands
For never asking me to run
Thank you for the room to be
All I was and have become
I breathe easier in your love

thank you…
Stay close…

I’ve watched the hard rain mark the glass
And learned that even storms will pass
Like slow tides faithful to the moon
You leave, return, and find me soon
I choose your face in morning’s honest light
Your shoulder near me through the night
Not out of hunger, not from fear—
I choose you freely, year by year

After every road I’ve traveled through
My deepest peace is choosing you

I breathe easier in your love
Like night air moving through the pines
I breathe easier in your love
Your steady heartbeat calming mine
Thank you for your strong, warm hands
For every gentle, patient touch
Thank you for the grace you give
And never asking for too much
I breathe easier in your love

When the last light leaves the room
I will still turn toward you
Through every season yet to come
My quiet yes stays true
Hold my hand and share the dark
I’ll stay close, whatever comes
My final breath will whisper—
I breathe easier in your love
