Untold

For my untold story has to unfold
How can you sit on an unstable branch
Left breaking to the mercy of the wind
Consoling your muted heart for love lost
Till you hear the sound of a big loud crash.

There you are falling like a broken star
Tears flow now from open skies to quench
The thirsting of parched souls and broken hearts
Your spirit is broken and so is your will
Your untold love story now has been spilled

What a lovely "telling" of love untold! I should say spilling, and it spills beautifully in that ending! (my theme is similar to yours though I chose a different title!)
