Fragments

⤞echo

My heart is an echo,
my soul, sepulchre deep,
a mausoleum to all the dreams
I have ever lost to sleep,
and in the darkness,
I'm wide-eyed chaos and
midnight sighs,
walking into the future
while still embroiled
within the lies
of the past I've suffered,
that casts a shade
across my days,
and while it remains,
my worries will never go away,
and I wait in patience,
my fractured shadow beside me,
drawn by the glint of hope
that offers life to
all I can be.
