SHARED LIGHT

Touch me deeper and deeper
From the inside out you do
Finding the truth buried
So long ago freely letting go
How can you just look inside
This sweet yet battered soul

In an instant my walls come down
Your gentle way captures my trust
Knowing safety in your true care
Somehow my defenses melt away
I believe in you that you will stay

We find ourselves drawn into this
Somehow healing so much inside
Seeing with different eyes now
Today seems so much lighter
Because you held me much tighter

Dissolving into such a gentle flow
Seeing the truth now like never before
Somehow we paint with new colors
A canvas that was worn and tattered
Brilliant and bright with our shared light

Strength in letting go all that came before
Finding the courage to open new doors
A passion born of renewed colors and hues
Finding true comfort in all that is between
The honesty, respect and love in me in you
