In the velvet dreams, where the shadows play,
I find myself drifting, lost in yesterday.
With your whispers like secrets, they dance in the air,
A yearning for moments that we both used to share.
When the flicker of light calls your name in the dark,
I chase the reflections, searching for that spark.
But the echoes grow distant, and the memories fade,
Leaving traces of love that the night serenades.
Oh, the moonlight we once knew, now a soft, ghostly glow,
Each heartbeat a river, where the silent winds blow.
Through the hush of the evening, like a lover's last sigh,
I'm counting the stars, but they won't tell me why.
And when the dawn breaks, casting shadows anew,
I’ll hold onto the fragments, yes, every truth.
For the velvet of dawn wraps me in its embrace,
As I whisper your name, with time’s gentle grace.
Though the flicker is dimming and the feelings may fade,
In my soul, there’s a fire, where your love won't evade.
I’ll carry you with me, through the bittersweet strife,
In the hush of the night, you’re the song of my life.
So let the minutes roll on, let the world spin away,
In the silence, I’ll find you, in the words left to say.
For even as I tremble, as I yearn and cascade,
You remain in my heart, where true love won’t fade.
Soul
Velvet, hush, yearning, flicker, fade
