You showed up like a shift in the wind Not a storm, not a sound, just the pull from within Like I’d dreamed you but forgot the face Still somehow knew the time and place No footprints, no trail behind But I felt you walk across my mind And something in me settled down Like I’d finally reached some solid ground You didn’t try to understand Just let your silence hold my hand And every word we didn’t speak Said more than lips could ever seek I don’t claim to understand But I felt you in the hollow of my hands Somewhere past the names and skin There’s a place where souls begin And maybe we just brushed that edge Like faded ink on an ancient pledge Not lovers, not strangers, not anything clear But something holy found us here You didn’t ask, I didn’t say Still we met in a sideways way Not lost, not bound, just gently glowing Somewhere in the knowing I won’t rewrite the sky for this Won’t turn a whisper to a kiss But if you find me in a dream Just smile like you remember me And if the winds don’t cross again If our story stops where it began That’s alright — some truths don’t need showing They live quietly… Somewhere in the knowing
