I think you cut my skin a little deeper
With a razored tongue last night.
I think I froze your heart a little colder
With the ice of my barren eyes.
I think you braved my silent darkness
And I your hurricane of words.
I think we both drowned a little deeper
In the quiet of these unknown woods.
I know this place is un-ventured
Its terrain feels new to my feet.
I know the mountain has loomed higher
As the path unfolds longer beneath.

But still I saw that gentle shimmer
Like sunlight off the water, in your eyes.
I think you felt my soft surrender
To the warmth of your skin next to mine.
I feel the mist is clearing
Revealing a view that’s brand new.
I know that my heart is still holding
To your heart, and my smile is with you.
I know that your feet walk by my feet
Though we each step in different time.
I know that I always can find you
Because your path is close to mine.

I think that our skins will be healing
As a delicate layer grows through.
I think that our love will be stronger
As appreciation sinks inside me and you.
I love you more each day I see you
More as those eyes recognize mine.
I love you for cutting me deeply
And bringing a new light in me to life.
