Soft as the night,
Your words still linger.
A trace in the air,
A touch on my finger.
No music plays,
Yet I hear your name
Over and over again.
Soft as the night,
This memory flows.
Quiet and slow,
Where no one knows.
I sit with silence,
But it speaks so loud
Soft as the night,
Without a crowd.
Light through the blinds,
A flicker, then gone.
Like thoughts I hide,
That play on and on.
I sip my time,
You sip my past
Some echoes are meant to last.
Soft as the night,
This memory flows.
Quiet and slow,
Where no one knows.
I sit with silence,
But it speaks so loud
Soft as the night,
Without a crowd.
Maybe I dream you just to cope,
Like jazz unresolved, but full of hope.
Soft as the night,
Stillness complete.
A heartbeat, a hush,
Where old love repeats.
No need to cry,
No need to fight
Just let me stay,
Soft as the night.
