Joy

Paper and ink glowing Every word, every line Captured in time I don’t say much, don’t need to prove My joy’s already in the room And it’s quiet, but it stays Just a moment But I’ll carry it for days Being seen … by you Love can show without a sound Just a moment But I‘ll carry it for days Being seen by you Love can show without a sound Just by staying, just by now No big lines, no perfect pose Just the way your kindness shows And it’s quiet but it stays Like it’s something to hold Let it start in this small space Being seen by you But I’ll carry it for days Being seen … by you Maybe joy was never loud Maybe it was always now Just a heart that dares to stand In the light it never asked for But was found Yeah it’s quiet, but it stays Like a fire under skin Every time I doubt my way I remember where I’ve been No parade, no grand display Just a truth I can’t undo I was seen in that one place I was seen in that one place I was seen I was seen By you.
