Peace

Downtown blares like war noise

You pull me back with your voice

I carry skies on shoulders

You lift them turning boulders

I act brave made of steel

With you I finally heal

You catch what I disguise

Read my soul won't hide

Your kiss becomes my chapel

Soft candles I just grapple

Holy water on my skin

I surrender and I let you in

You turn my panic tender

I drop my armor surrender

Sirens fade into thunder

You paint the dark with wonder

You make my small life sacred

I feel chosen truly favored

Your arms become my armor

My runaway heart finds harbor

Was just another tired man

But you held me like a plan

I felt basic kinda plain

You say my name like rain

I tremble finally honest

You smile back and promise

You see my deepest fracture

Still call it living rapture

I lay my burdens open

You hold my hands still hoping

Your love is holy fire

It lifts my breath up higher

You keep me from the ledge

You steady every edge

You turn my noise to choirs

Set my cold hands on fire

You make the mundane shimmer

Like saints inside a dimmer

I'm home when you say stay

The world then fades away

They say I talk too holy

But you love me slow-ly

Your touch feels like communion

Two souls in wild reunion

When I return to ashes

Your tears turn dark to flashes

You whisper soft amen

And I'm reborn again

Baby you're my dawn horizon

In you I feel risen

Your eyes a quiet altar

My doubts can't make you falter

Holy water midnight blessing

Every kiss a new confession

You make my life feel heaven

Like grace that lasts forever
