To give and take

Hands

Silence in the shadow of my memories
where the heart hides from the winds

My tears without voice I really didn’t see
not knowing that still I was stuck in pain

The vision of you now opens my wounds again
but something’s different no more I hide in fear

Your deep eyes soften the thorns in my flesh
the way you look at me feels just to be right

A voice I hear whispering in my ear
to be brave enough to care about you

Slowly my hands open in forgiveness
pride fades away in a act of kindness

Finally I heal from the wounds of time
while my breath finds a deeper sound

Our lips stop hurting blindly each other
sweet silence between us… giving and taking
