Underlight

This white place in shadow
Serves us well
Now that we’ve decided
To live honestly

There’s nothing here
That goes unnoticed
Or unseen
As our souls learn to speak
In dreams

In the underlight
You’re familiar, warm
As our silhouettes move
Across the room
In the underlight
I see you best
Faithful to no single form
Completely free

Here
The darkness and light
Are joined together
In prayer
Here
I found peace
Hovering patiently
In the corner
Of your eye

In this place
Where touch strikes
Ancient chords
I give myself
Completely

Now as we cover each other
In warmth
We know
We are home

In the underlight
You’re familiar, warm
As our silhouettes move
Across the room
In the underlight
I see you best
Faithful to no single form
Completely free
