Lonely Echo
By Nomar Knight
I sit in solitude
Waiting for a sign
That I'm not
forgotten
The sound of rocking
Back and forth
Keeps me company
A starless night
Tries to muffle
My mourning cries
Cold breeze whips by
Vague whispers
caress
Awaking curiosity
I lean closer to the
edge
Where heartache
rules
Listening for your
voice
I could barely hear
You calling my name
As teardrops fall
With pounding dreams
And outstretched
hope
I rise to praise the
miracle
But when sounds
sling back
A deadly dose
strikes
And I collapse again
Left to a merciless
fate
I relive the agony
Of this lonely echo
