Silent Nightfall

no words tonight
no need to say
your quiet breath just floats my way
the world
has dimmed but we remain in stillness
soft as midnight rain
in this silent night I feel you near
without a sound you calm my fear
no promises
no lullabies just comfort underneath the sky
the clock forgets to count the time
we rest between the space and rhyme
not everything needs to be heard
sometimes love speaks without a word
in this silent night I feel you near
without a sound you call my fear
no promises
no lullabies just comfort underneath the skies
your warmth like breath beside my skin
tells me I'm safe to let sleep in
we don't need the noise of light
to find each other in the night
in this silent night we disappear
no need
need for words you simply hear
like fading stars or candlelight
we hold each other through the night
