Broken Echoes

Echoes in the hallway, shadows trace the tears

Heart's a broken clock, tick-tockin' through the years

Memories like shattered glass on the floor

Every step a reminder of what ain't no more

Ghosts of love linger, haunt my every move

Songs we used to groove, now a distant groove

Picture frames empty, holds a missing piece

Every smile's a ghost, hunts me like a beast

Piece by piece, heart torn asunder

Thunderstorms in my chest, constant thunder

Drowning in the silence, deafening sound

Love's lost treasure, never to be found

Messages unread, phone screens cracked

Love letters in the trash, tied up in stacks

Nightmares in daylight, shadows that don’t fade

Feelings on lockdown, bars that won’t trade

Broken promises, whispers in the air

Heartbeat syncopated, lost without care

Tidal wave of sorrow, crashing on the shore

Emptiness reflected in a lover’s lore

Piece by piece, heart torn asunder

Thunderstorms in my chest, constant thunder

Drowning in the silence, deafening sound

Love's lost treasure, never to be found
