Echo.

A sub-conscious voice
Fleeting, yet intense
Began to linger on
In disguise

Playing in my head(or heart?)
a multitude of chimes.
Reluctant to lend an ear to this tune, I was
Reluctant to let it commit those crimes


Unaware
Of all the warmth it could bring me.
The cold soothing silence, was what I chose
Instead of letting in, those echoes

What was it trying to say?
The answers to all my questions, maybe it could convey?

It was a chance I had to take, a choice I finally made

Lost in a make-believe world,
pretending to love what I do
it would've been too much to lose,
had I lost the will
to give myself a chance, anew
