In the Seventh Hour

Here is where I am,
No words of shame;
Despite the past,
Nothing is lost when the time is right.

In your arms I feel the peace I'm craving,
Your skin gave me a place to stay ;
And your presence a sense of two,
Nothing is lost when the time is right.

On this bed of starring stars I'm resting well,
No apologies, no regrets;
The prize was the warmth of your presence,
Thus your flesh gave me a place to stay.

In the seventh hour,
When everyone is waking up;
The morning melody of rush ,
Despite the past;
I wasn't alone and neither lonely,
In fact I was alive,
Brave and not sorry.
