Through the echoes of my mind
I'm running fast
I'm running blind
It's the memories
That tend to please
But the darkness does remain

The echo of my youth
The ringing of the truth
Forgotten are the days
When we moved in different ways
But the spirit lives on
With age it grows strong
Keeps you on track to the sane

An echo of guilt
Here the psyche takes a slight tilt
There were some bad times
Some emotional crimes
Fortitude become a great point of reference
Mixed up in a world of decadence
The black dog no longer feeding the pain

The echoes that bring that surreal smile
The one that stretches , mile upon mile
It feeds and nurtures, clothes and warms
Helps guide us through those perfect storms
A life built around the echoes that you made
A life of reason as the light begins to fade
Reverberation
Holds the fascination
The echoes never cease
As you rest in eternal peace

It's been a while since then;
May you grow as you go.
