The Winds of Longing

Cool winds blow into my room,
And how I wish you came with them,
Gliding through the drapes
In all your ethereal beauty–
Here to warm my night,
Here to take me into your darling arms
And whisk me from all my cares.

Ah, beloved, when night winds blow,
They whisper to me your name,
And in the stars, I see your face.
A reprieve from my misery,
You are, my distant love.
When the winds blow, I hope,
They fly you closer to me.
