You Love Not

The storm is raging through the night,

The sky is dark, the ground is wet.

I'm standing right under the drops,

Remembering the words you said.

 

My face is wet--I do not know

Whether it's tears or just the rain.

My feelings seem to disappear;

I have been overwhelmed by pain.

 

Should I blame gravity for falling?

My mind is blank; I'm lost in thought..

I wonder why the world's still turning

When I love you and you love not…
