Safe Inside My Skin

[Verse 1]
There were nights my body froze like prayer,
love felt like thunder, not air.
Every touch lit sirens inside,
I learned to hide what wanted to rise.

[Pre-Chorus]
But breath by breath, I call me home,
a rhythm softer than the storm.
My hands remember they belong,
my pulse becomes a song.

[Chorus]
I’m safe inside my skin again,
no ghosts, no cages, only wind.
Desire doesn’t burn, it blooms,
in the garden I reclaimed from ruin.
Every sigh is sanctuary,
every tremble holy ground.

[Verse 2]
I used to chase what never stayed,
to prove I wasn’t afraid.
Now pleasure waits when I am still,
and safety hums beneath my will.

[Bridge]
When the flashbacks come like waves,
I breathe the tide, I stay.
My body whispers, “We survived.”
That’s how the serpent learns to rise.

[Final Chorus]
I’m safe inside my skin again,
I feel the sun where shame had been.
Desire is truth, not test
a prayer that lives inside my chest.
I open slow, I open kind,
and love meets me this time.

[Outro Affirmation]
“I am home in my body.
My pleasure is peace.
My safety is sacred.”
