Echoes
Echoes of sorrow drowning my soul
creating panic attacks I can't control
echoes of anger burning like flames
scorching my skin the pain I can't tame
echoes of fear constantly invading my mind
corrupting my judgement and giving me signs
echoes of lies decreasing the air in my lungs
suffocating, destroying me I'm coming undone
echoes of truth keep ringing in the distance
I am ignoring them all with great resistance
echoes of love floating their way into my heart
solemnly I pray hoping that I do not fall apart
echoes of hate stabbing holes into my back
throwing many punches making my ribs crack
Echo after echo circling around my head
if this is the way to live I'm already dead
