To us, beneath the soil of words

Verse 1

I do not love you for glitter or gold

Nor the ruby burn, blood-red and bright

No pink promise, no pearl in my palm

Only shadows

Only secret rooms inside my ribs

I love you as thunder under earth

Unseen, untold, the silence between words

Verse 2

I love you as deep things are cherished

Silent roots, unspeaking, bearing green hopes

A plant without petals, yet radiant inside

Carrying hidden light

Your love, a heavy scent on my skin

Dark and steady, keeps living, keeps haunting

Buried treasure you never show

Chorus

I love you without knowing how

Or when it began, or where it might end

No tangled reasons, no proud proclamations

Just this—just us—no explanations

So close, we dissolve into one

So close, every heart and hand, undone

Verse 3

I do not ask reasons or recount days

I do not count stars, or time, or toll

You are the breath before a confession

A key in the lock of my soul

I love you without questions or pride

Without show, buried deep, alive

No need for witness or waking world signs

No need for light

Chorus

I love you without knowing how

Or when it began, or where it might end

No tangled reasons, no proud proclamations

Just this—just us—no explanations

So close, we dissolve into one

So close, every heart and hand, undone

Bridge

There is no I when I love you so

There is no distance, nor dark, nor dawn

Your hand is my hand on my chest

Your eyes close as my eyes are drawn

to sleep

To silence

To us, beneath the soil of words

Where secret, sacred things grow

Chorus

I love you without knowing how

Or when it began, or where it might end

No tangled reasons, no proud proclamations

Just this—just us—no explanations

So close, we dissolve into one

So close, every heart and hand, undone

Outro

Between shadow and soul, quietly

I love you

I love you

I love you
