Blackout Rhythms

Shadows creep when the moonlit streets,

Echoes bouncing, drum beats under feet,

Life twisted, minds full of haze,

Lost in the maze on these pitch-black days.

Nighttime thoughts, demons whisper loud,

Voices blending in the city's shroud,

Running from fears that I can’t unsee,

Haunted by dreams that were never meant to be.

Blackout rhythms, heartbeats racing,

Ghosts in the dark, no time for tracing,

Lost in the echoes, caught in the trap,

Fast-paced life, no way to map.

Streetlights flicker, minds switching gears,

Reality bending, suspended in fears,

Chains on the soul, can’t break free,

Darkness engulfs, consumes my plea.

Eyes wide open in the pitch-black room,

Lurking nightmares, impending doom,

Echoes of a past that won’t release,

Searching for a moment of elusive peace.

Blackout rhythms, heartbeats racing,

Ghosts in the dark, no time for tracing,

Lost in the echoes, caught in the trap,

Fast-paced life, no way to map.
