A Story Left Untold

The air is cold; the wind blows strong
The rain pelts on the ground
The leaves they quiver; sing sad songs
On love that’s never found

The dark, grey sky hangs overhead
The moon its only light
Like a shadow big and full of dread
It casts a gloom on sight

My feet are damp, my skin is wet
I shiver while I breathe
A pain I’m trying to forget
While I sob, weep, and sniff

A sorrow lingers in my eyes
That struggles to escape
I scream, I yell, I shout, I cry
I can’t accept my fate

Never can I ever trust;
Have faith in naught a soul
This searing pain shall ever last
A story left untold.
