If I hurt, if your love I resist
If I shout and be shrill
Later you'll find me treading the paths
Dark, lonely, under the stars
If you come, join and look me in the eye
And quietly forgive me for that time
...I'll be yours
Through words, in sweet voices
I may confess love and express choices
Talk through hours
Fight through wars
But the day you are okay with
my stillness and to silence we bequeath
...I'll be yours
We may travel the world in zest
We may laugh until out of breath
My devotion will still be hesitant
If you writhe under moments of silence
When only the time arrives
we won't need to talk, even through our eyes
...I'll be yours
