Veil of Safety

Shadows dance where dangers hide
A trembling step, nowhere to confide
Eyes that watch from silent deep
Promises only darkness keep
Then a shift in the bitter air
A truth that shouldn’t have been there
What seemed a threat, a shield became
A shelter whispered without a name
Oh, this veil of safety, torn and true
The darkest guard protecting you
In the silence, in the dread
A shelter where my fears were led
Now I see the light you gave
In the bravest, kindest save
Whispers of a guarded heart
A fragile bond, a work of art
No words were spoken, yet I knew
The danger hid a love so true
Then a shift in the bitter air
A truth that shouldn’t have been there
What seemed a threat, a shield became
A shelter whispered without a name
Oh, this veil of safety, torn and true
The darkest guard protecting you
In the silence, in the dread
A shelter where my fears were led
Now I see the light you gave
In the bravest, kindest save
From the depths where terrors lie
A truth emerged to purify
That what I judged as cold and stark
Held an everlasting spark
Oh, this veil of safety, torn and true
The darkest guard protecting you
In the silence, in the dread
A shelter where my fears were led
Now I see the light you gave
In the bravest, kindest save
Veil of safety, strong and deep
Guardian secrets I will keep
In this truth, I stand reborn
Through the silence, through the storm
