The Echo Chamber
Empty space surrounds me Stretching out into the shadows The echoes are loud here. My head splitting with the sound. A yell comes back again and again to assail me. A whisper never fails to revisit me. A cry of anguish! a laugh! a lie! NOTHING dies in the echo chamber! Not even a thought. CAN YOU HEAR ME??? My voice is lost in the echoes of what you say… Long before it reaches you. As loud as I shout, you never hear my voice You say you miss me But who do you miss? You’re so fixed on your own words That I think you miss a ghost of your imagination. I am not a pawn and this is not a game to play. I scratch these words upon the walls… Even as your echoes call. Perhaps you’ll see them at last someday Long after we’re done and I’m gone away. ©️ 2024, Accountec, LLC
