SHADOWS & LIGHT
By Vera Von Monika
Verse 1
You step into the quiet,
not like dawn,
but like a secret the night kept,
a heat beneath the hush of dark.
Every glance cuts through the air,
threads of fire woven in stillness,
and I can’t tell where you end
and the world begins.
Pre-Chorus
The silence hums your name,
pulling me closer without touch.
A gravity I cannot resist,
a note that bends me in two.
Chorus
Shadows and light,
you break through the night.
Every heartbeat, every sigh,
I fall again, without knowing why.
You’re the song I cannot unhear,
the echo that lingers, crystal-clear.
Verse 2
The room tilts when you move,
air trembling under your presence.
Each breath, a quiet command,
each word, a spark I cannot contain.
Time slows in your orbit,
the world shrinks to your flame.
And I am caught
a moth in the glow of your name.
Pre-Chorus
The silence hums your name,
pulling me closer without touch.
A gravity I cannot resist,
a note that bends me in two.
Chorus
Shadows and light,
you break through the night.
Every heartbeat, every sigh,
I fall again, without knowing why.
You’re the song I cannot unhear,
the echo that lingers, crystal-clear.
Bridge
Let the dark fold around us,
let the world dissolve outside.
In this fragile, endless moment,
your presence is my only guide.
Outro
Shadows and light,
I’m lost in your night.
Every heartbeat, every sigh,
I fall again, and I don’t fight.
You’re the song I cannot unhear,
the echo that lingers, forever near.
