Echoes

Echoes

Once you were the light

illuminating the darkness in my heart

Now all that is left is self doubt

The whispering memory of your voice

it echoes, echoes, echoes

reverberating deep inside my soul

filling the hollow, empty spaces

The words you said would soothe me

and with everything I am

I still want so much to believe

The vivid dreams of you

haunt the silence of the night

as I call out your name

hearing only the echo, echo, echo
