Reverance

(Verse 1) You never enter loudly You arrive like truth Soft footsteps in my silence Still, the room moves to you I was fluent in goodbyes Before you said my name Now even the quiet listens When you breathe my way (Pre-Chorus) You don’t ask for my devotion You earn it in the way you stay In the pauses, in the patience In the words you never say (Chorus) This is reverance Not the kind that bends the knee It’s the kind that stands beside you And still chooses you freely No crown, no ceremony Just a vow I don’t announce If love is something holy Then you’re where I lay it down (Verse 2) You see me unguarded No armour, no role You don’t flinch at the shadows You know they made me whole I’ve been desired loudly But never held like this You touch me like a promise That already exists (Pre-Chorus) You don’t need my performance You don’t need me proved You love the woman resting Not the one trying to be moved (Chorus) This is reverance Not obsession, not demand It’s devotion without ownership Your heart free in my hands No fire for the audience No tragedy to claim Just the quiet understanding That love doesn’t need pain (Bridge) If the world forgets our faces If the nights grow long and thin I will meet you in the stillness Where we’ve always been I don’t worship at your feet I don’t lose myself in you I honour what we are together By staying true (Final Chorus) This is reverance Clean and unafraid A love that doesn’t chase itself Or need to be saved I choose you in the mundane In the ordinary breath Not just in the beauty But the rest (Outro) So if you ever wonder What you mean to me It’s not passion shouting It’s peace It’s peace
