Lonely Echoes
Cobwebs litter the empty halls
As down these lonely paths I walk
My footsteps echo throughout my mind
No one to talk to; only shadows to stalk
Fleeting memories whisper past like a ghost of a stream,
I grasp vainly in the air at empty straws
They slip through my fingers like fluid dreams
Leaving my heart still yet unthawed.
In a valley of desolation I walk
Face turned forward, never looking behind
Lonely as hell but I can't turn back
Scared of what my soul might find.
Their painful screams still echo with my cries
As I throw my head to desolate skies
When will this world be rid of these lies?
When this monster in me is crushed and dies.
I walk down these empty paths in my mind
Lonely echoes bother me no more
Face resolved, I come to a halt
And prepare to open the final door.
Hmm…feels slightly disjointed to me- especially the first stanza- feel free to criticize all you like- comments will be greatly appreciated!
Oh, and thanks to Dark Magician Girl Hikaru for correcting me- I'd uplaoded the wrong thing altogether! (hands out a plushie)
