Ashes & Honey

I gave you my soul, no hesitation,

Loved you like a sacred revelation.

You looked like peace in the beginning,

But you were fire from the start, just hidden.

You called it love,

But it felt like war.

Every “I love you”

Cut me a little more.

You were a storm I didn’t see coming,

A whisper that knew how to lie.

Got lost in your endless running,

Woke up from your pretty disguise.

But love don’t die—it just sheds its skin,

And from ashes and honey,

I rise again.

Now he’s here with hands that don’t shake,

He holds me like I’m not a mistake.

Kisses the pain you left on my skin,

And loves me slow from deep within.

He don’t run

When the sky turns grey.

He stays,

Even when I push him away.

You were a storm I didn’t see coming,

A whisper that knew how to lie.

Got lost in your endless running,

Woke up from your pretty disguise.

But love don’t die—it just sheds its skin,

And from ashes and honey,

I rise again.

Yeah, I still feel the sting of your name,

But I’m not yours to break again.

I made it out with more than scars—

I found myself inside the dark.

You were a storm I didn’t see coming,

But he sees me with eyes wide and true.

No more silence, no more running,

Just love that shows up and follows through.

Love didn’t die—it just waited its turn,

And from ashes and honey,

I let it burn…

Into something new.
