In the shadows, where the silence weeps,
A smoky shimmer on the water keeps,
The restless blues sing a mournful tune,
Underneath the fading dusk, we lose the moon.
With every aching rhythm, my heart's exposed,
Drifting on the echoes where the sunlight dozed,
A velvet glow wraps around my sighs,
While the shadowed murmur whispers of goodbyes.
The night air hums with memories left behind,
Like a secret held close, never meant to unwind,
Here on this shore, where the lost dreams collide,
Carried away by the hollow tide.
Oh, the stars are like soldiers, guarding the sky,
But even they tremble when the heart learns to cry,
In this stillness of twilight, I yearn for a sign,
Searching through the darkness for something divine.
Each note that lingers hangs heavy in the air,
A dance with the ghosts of the love we shared,
In the smoky shimmer, shadows stretch and glide,
As I wander this road with the hollow tide.
So I’ll play my blues till the morning breaks,
Each yearning melody as the silence shakes,
With the velvet glow leading me to the light,
And I'll find my solace in the arms of night.
This restless heart learns to let go of pride,
Embracing the waves of the hollow tide.
Blues
Hollow tide, smoky shimmer, restless blues, velvet glow, aching rhythm, shadowed murmur, fading dusk
