In a room full of enemies
Including yours truly
Even when truly sometimes I’m not even yours

You speak of me fondly
And call me by name
You blame me for beauty and love for your cause

But love like an ocean
Is nearer than shadows
From my shallow stream that runs dry by your sea

Your thunder will deepen
This rain deep affection
And deep connects deep as you flow out of me.
