Unheard echoes of a story untold




Surrounded by a lake,

A deep, dark wave,

Cold and relentless,

Brushes my skin,

I cannot speak, nor move,

Trapped in this quiet stillness.


I hear the rustle of leaves,

Falling far beneath the trees,

Whispering secrets of a world unseen.

I should call for help,

But there’s no one on the horizon,

Just the pounding of my heart,

An alarm clock long forgotten,

Its scream unheard, 

Echoes untold,

in this hallowed world.


By the shore,

The rushing waters pull at my ankle,

Summoning me to go under,

Where silence awaits,

it resonates

With my last breath, I hesitate.


I long for sleep,

But sleep slips farther away,

Each time I close my eyes,

My mind dives deeper into darkness,

Into the void- the vast nothingness

In a restless sea of thoughts I sail,

struggling to navigate 


I hear a distant  lullaby,

Soft and soothing voice—

A melody from a faraway place,

Asking me to join the angels’ song.

Is death a sweet escape,

Or simply an endless void?

I wonder, sometimes.


I’ve fought to stay afloat,

To hold on to something,

But blood rushes to my face—

I need to speak,

Before the silence consumes me.

Who will come to save me?
