Rain

By Ld Marduk

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

In a world now void…of laughter,Where no love can e’er be found,Where tears but fall like rain,‘Tis the place I may be found—But such…’twas not so always,For there had been a time,When I gave of love…quite freely,And none seemed but to mind—Alas, those days art gone,Quite gone…forevermore,In a world now void…of laughter,And love that be…no more—I am left to wonder,Where did I go wrong,What twist of fate doth haunt me,That my world is void of all…The love, and laughter…Caring, and joy,It seems…impossible—Yet, alas, ‘tis but the truth,And my heart must pay the price,And there is nothing to be gained,In seeking compromise—For a world now void…of laughter,Where no love…can e’er be found,And where tears but fall like rain,Is the place I may be found—For though it was not so always,Alas, those days art gone,Quite gone…forevermore,And my world,Is now void…of laughter,And love that be…no more.
