Composure

By Welfred Panes

Sitting silent, speaking slowly

What we whisper, wounds unwinding

Something settled, something shifting

In between us

All the weight you wear

Settling softly

And I see you breathing, barely breathing

Through the cracks in careful composure

Let me hold you, let me hold you

When the world gets heavy

Let me hold you, let me hold you

All the weight you wear

All the weight you wear

Morning madness, making moments

Finding fragile, finding fearless

Past thе pretense, past prеtending

To your center

All the weight you wear

Settling softly

And I see you breathing, barely breathing

Through the cracks in careful composure

Let me hold you, let me hold you

When the world gets heavy

Let me hold you, let me hold you

All the weight you wear

All the weight you wear

Tender truths in tender timing

Nothing needed, nothing hiding

Just the space between our silence

And surrender

All the weight you wear

All the weight you wear

All the weight you wear

And I see you breathing, barely breathing

Through the cracks in careful composure

Let me hold you, let me hold you

When the world gets heavy

Let me hold you, let me hold you

All the weight you wear

All the weight you wear

Let me hold you, let me hold you

All the weight you wear
