In the night, there’s a shadowed breeze,
Whispering soft like a lover’s tease.
Through the alleys where the memories sigh,
I hear an aching murmur passing by.
The smoky tones of a distant song,
Echo in the places where I don’t belong.
Each dusky shimmer, a moonlit trace,
Filling my heart with a long-lost grace.
As the trembling dawn breaks the silence wide,
I search for peace, but pain won’t hide.
With a restless heart, I wander these streets,
Chasing the echoes where longing meets.
Oh, velvet howl of the midnight sky,
Telling me stories of days gone by.
Each note wraps 'round, pulls me near,
In the rhythm of blues, I find my fear.
With a broken guitar, I strum my plight,
Pour my soul out into the night.
Every chord, a tear that’s felt,
In the smoky haze, my heart was dealt.
So let the shadows embrace my plight,
As I journey on through the velvet night.
Every road I walk, every sigh I send,
Leads to a heartache, but it won’t be the end.
For in every breeze, every aching tone,
I’ll find a way to call this heart my own.
With each dusky shimmer that dances free,
I’ll write my blues, and let my spirit be.
In the embrace of this lonesome call,
I’ll find the way to rise and stand tall.
For love may fade, but it always leaves,
A trace of warmth in a shadowed breeze.
Blues
Shadowed breeze, aching murmur, smoky tones, dusky shimmer, trembling dawn, restless heart, velvet howl
