Night's Ember

Night falls softly
Where you shone
You were the glow
That felt like home
A quiet fire
In shadowed air
A gentle truth
Too bright to bear

You moved with warmth
You breathed in grace
Leaving light
In every place
Your tender spark
Still guides my way
A fading star
That chose to stay

I hold the light
You gave so free
A fragile note
You placed in me
You sang your life
In the key of love
And left that song
I’m made of

Your softened glow
Still stirs the dark
A whispered hymn
A living mark
You shaped my sky
In aching gold
A quiet love
That won’t grow old

I hold the light
You gave so free
A fragile note
You placed in me
Though you are gone
Your song remains
In the key of love
Through all my days

Soft as breath
Your memory moves
An ember warm
Of the love you used
