Unspoken Rain

Under the lantern's fading light. Raindrops write stories in the night.

The scent of jasmine lingers soft and slow. Your shadow fades, where does it

go? A whisper lost in the air I raised. But you weren't

and these old walls. The words I hid, they drown and

stream. You're the echo in my dreams. The moon hides

behind the veil of gray. Time stands still but slips away. The flute plays

a melody I've heard before. A song of longing,
