I lost a rhyme

Somewhere in time 

One that nestled

In my soul

 

It left a scar

A dying star

Could not replace 

The light it stole

 

I searched my mind

But could not find

Why my soul

Set it free

 

Perhaps my sadness 

My internal madness 

Showed no joy

Would ever be

 

So, if one day

It should come your way

Give it my love

And regret

 

My soul was broken

Leaving words unspoken 

Casting a vague 

Silhouette  

 

Please make it a home

So it's not alone 

And its words

Aren't easily forgotten 

 

So the path you have taken

Will not be forsaken 

And the soil

Never untrodden 

 

And, Perhaps, in time 

My beautiful rhyme 

May seek me out

Once more

 

When my soul is healed

Without sadness concealed 

And my heart

Has an open door
