Crimson Night

(A distant vinyl crackle… the faint hum of a jazz club lost in time.)

⸻

Crimson night,

You saw me fading away,

With every dream left to decay,

With love that time led astray.

(Bass creeps in like slow footsteps, smoky saxophone sighs.)

⸻

Crimson night,

You knew just why I was there,

You heard me whisper a final prayer,

For someone who was never there.

(Chilling violin sways, drums tapping like a heartbeat.)

⸻

And then their shadow danced before me,

The ghost of love I couldn’t hold.

I swore I heard them whisper ‘Please adore me,’

But when I reached out, they turned cold.

(The saxophone moans—a melody lost in regret.)

⸻

Crimson night,

Now I’m stranded below,

With a dream turned to dust,

With a love I’ll never know.

(Piano fades… leaving only the sound of the wind through empty streets.)

⸻

“You saw me standing alone…”

(Echoes, lost in the void.)
