The Wind Hath Gone Away

Sometimes you think you know how the world works, but then it sends you a message.

The Wind Hath Gone Away

By. Silvan

The name I heard could not be found,

Nor seen nor heard, it made no sound.

The song it sang was soft and sweet,

But a bitter end, its voice did meet,

And left me in the lonesome.

My ears still rang with rivers of love,

My heart did beat like a new spring dove.

The face I knew had gone astray,

The wind had left, it did not stay.

It haveth no sound anymore, though I long for its gentle embrace.

It wanders by me, as if it not remember my face.

I yearn for a sound, a somber song,

A simple tune, nothing too long,

But she turns her back and forgets.

I shan't not cry in longing yearn,

She care me not, show no concern.

Though the reason why, I will not learn,

For the wind hath gone away.

There is gentleness, wistfulness of loneliness, beauty in sadness through Your words, though You are alone and sad, but there is a feeling of being blessed and being grateful flow with Your tender emotion, it's clear that You've written it with Your real, pure, faithful senses.

I was impressed by the title alone! Any poet nowadays that can use 'hath' correctly gets a gold star (dating myself-- pretty sure teachers stopped giving out stars eons ago)--nice rhyme scheme, and a strong final stanza.

This is an amazing piece of poetry. I love it!
