The walls came down without a sound, You found me sitting on the ground, You pressed your warmth against my side, And asked for nothing, stayed inside. Where you are is where I'll be, No matter where you wander free, I'll follow close without a word, I'll find you wherever you fall. I said the things beneath my breath, Your chin warm and still on my chest, No verdict lived behind your eyes, Just steady breath and no reply. Some days you wander out of sight, But when the dark replaces light, You reappear without a call, Like you'd been waiting in the hall. Where you are is where I'll be, No matter where you wander free, You settle at my feet and stay, My whole body knows you're here. The weight has eased, the light feels wide, You pace, then settle by my side, We breathe together, slow and still, And nothing left that words could fill. Where you are is where I'll be, No matter where you wander free, You are the quiet in my chest, The only place I get to rest.
