There is such stillness in the night
In this quiet my thoughts are clear Of the things in life that matter And of the people I hold dear What lives in me I often cloak The radiance I dare not show I cannot let the shine escape I cannot even let it glow With some I have shared of this light And in so doing, saw their own Our friendship brighter since we shared Now so much closer we have grown This light dwells deep within us all We often hide its majesty For fear to hurt or being hurt So often hard the balance be We clothe ourselves in layers thick We fear to trust, so fail to shine And keep within us all we are I've often done the same with mine But recently I chose to trust Though still afraid, uncloaked my light And let my heart be viewed in depth I only hope that I was right |
