At the window she waits in loneliness Moonlight glowing on the river below she watches for the return of her love Soft breezes blowing through the willows accompanying the notes of a Pipa lute playing an ancient somber melody It carries to her upon the wind She reaches her arms up to the stars and sings of the longings within her heart

The longing is too deep that I can feel the emotions of this poem. Exactly you expressed the thoughts of your feelings in a more imaginary way. God bless.

If longing could be a binding thread that crosses the distance to a lover's heart

I'd use heavy duty, dual-coated thread to protect the longing. Thank you for such heart felt comments, Frederic.
