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.
