Echos

Calling out your name,
All I hear is the faint echos of my voice.
The constant torment,
Of not knowing where you are.

I hear your cries,
Deep in the darkness.
Calling out to me now.
Ai I fal farther away.

I never listened to your cries,
Even though I should have before.
You were in danger,
Yet I never listened to your pleas.

You've been enfolded into the darkness.
Never to return again,
Now all I ever hear,
Are you faded pleas,
Echo in the dark.
