Solitary
A hug is left unfelt
A tear falls silently down
As the moon slowly fades
There is no one around
No one hears the wail
Of a solitary soul
As the night drifts endlessly
To pay a painful toll
A single tear brushed away
Like it never did exist
And hear the mournful wail
Oh why does it hurt like this
The solitary soul walks on
It follows a single path
Until from sheer exhaustion
It collapses unseen at last
No one sees the sadness
The pain is not felt
The tears are left to fall
The heart has begun to melt
