ECHOES

 

I sorted out for the truth

Nothing more than the root

Of all that was hidden

Of all buried within

Something I can tell no one

Something existing but was never born

A secret that will change the world

A mystery only meant for the called

Alas my search sees its end

My lust that has become a friend

But the truth has been laid far beneath

And getting it has forced me down six feet

I have kept my search a mystery a secret

But what I’ve become is my fall and defeat

I wish I could tell you

I really wish I told you

It’ so loud inside my head

With words that I should have said

As I drown in my regret

I can’t take back the words I never said
