Echoes in the dark

Lost inside my restless mind,

Trying hard to read the signs.

Shadows creeping, closing in,

Doubt is where the dark begins.

I try to run, but I just stay,

Circles turning night to day.

Every whisper sounds like cries,

Echoes I can’t leave behind.

Echoes in the dark, calling out my name,

Pulling me back to the place I can’t escape.

Searching for a spark to break the night apart,

But all I hear are echoes in the dark.

Pieces of a faded past,

Fragments I can't help but grasp.

Reaching out, but there's no hand,

Slipping like the shifting sand.

I try to fight, but still I fall,

Haunted by these empty walls.

Every thought becomes a storm,

Lost where silence feels so warm.

Echoes in the dark, calling out my name,

Pulling me back to the place I can’t escape.

Searching for a spark to break the night apart,

But all I hear are echoes in the dark.

If I close my eyes, can I find the light?

Or will I be tangled in this endless night?

Echoes in the dark, calling out my name,

Hoping that the dawn will come and chase away the rain.

Searching for a spark to heal my heavy heart,

But all I hear are echoes in the dark.
