...Gloom

Whisper of my sunshine gloom
Sitting here in the rain as I sing just a little out of tune
Dreams once so close echo in the distance of a long-lost hope
Smiling just a little as I hold this frayed rope
My poems mean little to me any more
All of them the same story of a man at war
At war with his emotions and memories, too clear
Preying on my fears, too many tears
I’m worn of this world as another year fades
Winter is coming as fall is soon to pass
I wish only that this darkness wouldn’t last
Sitting here in the rain as I sing just a little out of tune
Dreams once so close echo in the distance of a long-lost hope
Smiling just a little as I hold this frayed rope
My poems mean little to me any more
All of them the same story of a man at war
At war with his emotions and memories, too clear
Preying on my fears, too many tears
I’m worn of this world as another year fades
Winter is coming as fall is soon to pass
I wish only that this darkness wouldn’t last

The emotional depth expressed through the words is truly touching, but the rhyme, the rhyme is truly impressive, cheers.
