Only you

I built my walls, high and wide

Learned to run, learned to hide

But then your voice, low and rough

Cut through the quiet—just enough

I kept my hands from reaching out

Told myself I could live without

But every time you looked my way

Something in me begged to stay

---

Only you

Can see the cracks and not turn away

Only you

Can touch the dark and still choose to stay

I never thought I’d find something true

But I did

In only you

---

You make me feel I’m not a ghost

More than battle, more than bones

You smile like I’m not broken through

Like I’m still something you could choose

You hold the storm behind your eyes

But you still see me, every time

And gods, I tried to walk away

But I was yours before I stayed

---

Only you

Make the silence feel like home

Only you

Make me brave enough to hope

I’ve been burned, I’ve been bruised

But I still fall

For only you

---

Kael: I never meant to feel this.

Amara: I never wanted to need this.

Both (softly): But here we are.

---

Only you

Know the worst and still reach for my hand

Only you

Could love me and still let me stand

If this world falls away too soon…

I’d still find my way

To only you

---

Only you…

Always you.
