Silent Memories

lyric

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 5 months ago 1 min read

Verse 1

We walked into the morning

With nothing but our names,

Two wandering constellations

Learning how to share a flame.

And the world grew soft around us

As the years began to rise—

Every moment stitching sunlight

In the corners of our lives.

Chorus

Oh, love like this is a quiet vow,

A promise made in the here and now.

Not loud, not forced, just a steady light

That carries us through the longest night.

Two souls entwined in the gentle way

That only time and truth can say—

We are one in the places no one sees,

In our silent, unspeakable memories.

Verse 2

We learned the art of leaning

Without losing who we are,

Holding space for all the shadows

And the dreams that traveled far.

And the storms that tried to break us

Only taught our roots to grow—

Every tear became a river

Where forgiveness learned to flow.

Chorus

Oh, love like this is a quiet vow,

A promise made in the here and now.

Not loud, not forced, just a steady light

That carries us through the longest night.

Two souls entwined in the gentle way

That only time and truth can say—

We are one in the places no one sees,

In our silent, unspeakable memories.

Bridge

And when the years turn silver,

And the world grows soft and slow,

We’ll still be walking side by side

In the stories only we will know.

For every breath has been a thread

In the tapestry we’ve spun—

Not perfect, not easy, but wholly ours,

Two hearts learning to beat as one.

Final Chorus

Oh, love like this is a quiet vow,

A promise made in the here and now.

Not loud, not forced, just a steady light

That carries us through the longest night.

Two souls entwined in the gentle way

That only time and truth can say—

We are one in the places no one sees,

In our silent, unspeakable memories.
