It Howls in My Bones
Standing alone,
I stare into
Darkness,
the Void
of the
blackest
of nights;
No stars shine here,
No light in the night.
The Shadow
envelopes
my soul.
I am
no longer
whole.
Thunder crashes,
the sky remains
Slate,
Raindrops fall on my
face – daggers of
ice and of
Spite;
rivers run
down from
my eyes.
The Wind, it
tears and it
bites,
howling in
my bones.
The Wind
howls in
my bones.
How can
I be so
alone?
Howling, the Wind
cries out with
my soul,
but none can
hear it here;
This darkest of places,
This blackest of nights –
The home of my deepest
of fears.
It cries, but the
Wind sheds no
tears.
No tears for my
deepest of fears.
How is it that
nobody hears?
The Wind,
it howls
in my
bones.
It has a song-like quality to it. Maybe you should find a melody to go with it.
Very nice, BTW

Very dark and dreary, but beautifully written! It’s ironic how sadness brings great writing!
