Akane Tendo: Gentle Switch

I used to run so wild, so free, A warrior’s heart was all they'd see. But somewhere deep, the walls gave way, Soft whispers called me to stay. And I don’t know why this feels so new, The mirror shows a version of me I never knew. It’s a gentle shift, a tender turn, A quiet flame that starts to burn. I’m not the girl I used to be, But maybe now, I’m truly free. With every curve, I find my place, In love’s embrace, I’m learning grace. The weight of change feels strange, yet kind, It shapes my heart, it soothes my mind. Your touch reminds me who I am, Not just the strong, but the soft again. And though it’s hard, I’ll let it show, The love I feel, the seeds we sow. It’s a gentle shift, a tender turn, A quiet flame that starts to burn. I’m not the girl I used to be, But maybe now, I’m truly free. With every curve, I find my place, In love’s embrace, I’m learning grace. The laughter, the tears, they’re part of me, A dance of strength and vulnerability. And though I stumble, I still believe, This is the me I’m meant to be. It’s a gentle shift, a tender turn, A quiet flame that starts to burn. I’m not the girl I used to be, But maybe now, I’m truly free. With every curve, I find my place, In love’s embrace, I’m learning grace. In love’s embrace, I’m learning grace... A gentle shift, my heart’s new pace.
