The distant echoes of a voice once heard
Shimmering into my being, the fog of my conscience.
Your gentle hands took me to the abyss; the ambience screamed,
Screeched in pure agony. I feel sorry for the inanimate, for they warned me.
Still,
Despite my innocence,
This beautiful tragedy - a twisted melody
Harmless lyrics evoking your desire for madness
The distant echoes of a voice linger still as I fall the stairs.

“I feel sorry for the inanimate, for they warned me” is especially striking 2 me, it gives the world a nervous consciousness, like everything around you is complicit and grieving.
It reads like remembering someone through their residue- sound without presence, touch without mercy. A soft haunting that won’t stop humming.
