Serenade of Longing

Soft strings whisper, echo in the night

A lonely drum, heartbeat out of sight

Across the miles, your voice like a breeze

Floating through the silence, reaching my knees

City lights flicker, but inside I see

Your face in the shadows of my reverie

Every note and every tune,

Carries the hope that comes too soon

Hold on tight, through the space,

Love’s melody will find its place

Missing you in this jazz serenade,

Orchestra dreams serenely played

Longing’s whisper in the air,

Hearts in sync though we're rare

Piano keys dance, soft and slow,

Like my thoughts of you that grow and grow

Even by the stars, I feel you near,

Embedded in melodies, crystal clear

Every note and every tune,

Carries the hope that comes too soon

Hold on tight, through the space,

Love’s melody will find its place

Missing you in this jazz serenade,

Orchestra dreams serenely played

Longing’s whisper in the air,

Hearts in sync though we're rare

Between the silence and the sound,

Our love’s symphony, unbound

Waiting for the day we reunite,

Playing our song under the moonlight

Strings fade into the night,

Hold on, love, till morning’s light

Until then, I’ll sing this tune,

Waiting for your coming to bloom
