I like to write poetry

This is an excerpt from a poem I'm working on...

He sees a memory of his own and quickly looks away.
As the shade of a man who already knows his past.
That the history of his lost heart and his present lead astray,
Wounds left untended, Love left ungrasped.

The sound of a train moves distantly so.
Albert sits at a bench and huddles in the cool.
"I don't wish to be here, and yet I still go.
To soothe my soul by looking as a ghoul.

Lonely and cross at what I can't know.
Thinking if I stay here forever, I'll be in the ground.
But I just don't understand why it happened to me."
Help left ungiven, Answers left unfound.

It's beautiful. Makes me want to get back into poetry myself. What's the title of the poem?

@PinkMoon Thank you. It's about guy who is struggling with understanding what's happening. It's called Alberts Lament tho, it's still being written.
