Echoes In the Distance
Echoes in the distance
bring torment and resistance-
Save me from this night,
take away love’s sight,
for nothing seems quite right.
Shadows in the morning
bring heartache and mourning-
save my weary mind,
I’m mania and compassion combined,
a tangled labyrinth entwined.
Fear has been my flavor
as obscurity I savor-
What’s this life good for?
Filled with anguish and abhor,
I might as well close the door.
I need not days of clarity
just moments of sincerity-
Insecurity troubles my soul,
the glass never half full-
always craving to be whole.
I’ve ended all that saves,
nourished all that craves-
free me once again,
I need a suture to mend,
this seems to be the end.
