We Shine The Same Way

It wasn't loud
It was quiet, the way it found us

We didn't fall, we slowly aligned
Like two horizons learning the same line
No need for promises carved in stone
Your presence made my heart feel like home

I saw myself in the way you breathe
In the silence, in what you don't say to me
And all the fears I used to defend
Faded away when you touched my skin

You feel like peace
Like something I don't have to chase
You feel like truth
Looking back at me through your face

Morning light dancing across your chest
I trace your story, I know it by heart
Every scar is a place I respect
Every silence, a work of art

We learned love without disguise
No roles to play, no alibis
Just two souls, unlearning the pain
Holding each other through every rain

We were written in a softer sky
Not to fight, not to hide
Just to be, just to live
Just to love without asking why

Two men, one quiet flame
No shame left in our name
If this is love, let it stay
Like a calm that won't drift away

They told us love should look a certain way
But love never asked for their permission
And somewhere between your hands and my heart
I stopped surviving, and started living

We were written in a softer sky
Not to break, not to deny
Just to feel, just to trust
All the light they couldn't take from us

Two lives, one sacred place
No fear left to erase
If this is love, let it be
All we are, and all we'll ever need

Not written in the stars
But we shine the same way
