Memory of a Forgotten Dream

In the silence of the night, my soul begins to scream, Haunted by the ghost of a forgotten dream. Shadows whisper secrets that I cannot keep, Echoes of a past that stir me from my sleep. Every breath a desperate plea, Caught between what was and what could be. Tears burn like fire upon my skin, Darkness pulls the light that lies within. Silent screams that pierce the endless night, Yearning for a shattered peace that's out of sight. My heart races in this unending pain, Bound by chains of sorrow, caught in the strain. Visions dance upon the edges of my mind, Moments lost in shadows, clarity confined. Time distorts and bends, reality slips away, Leaving only heartache where I used to stay. Darkened corridors of fear where whispers never cease, Footsteps echo hauntingly, stealing all my peace. Hope flickers like a dying flame, Struggling just to remain. Moonlight casts a ghostly glow upon the path I tread, Revealing all the scars and memories that spread. Stars above refuse to guide me through this endless night, As I wander lost inside, searching for the light. Breathing feels like sinking into waters dark and deep, Every breath a silent cry, unable to find sleep. Walls close in with tightening grip, Sanity begins to fray, Voices whisper, taunt, and tease, Leading me astray. Dreams unravel, thread by thread, Leaving only fears instead, In the abyss where shadows play, I'm lost within my head. Morning breaks, the shadows flee, But scars remain inside, Echoing through silent veins where broken memories hide. A ghost that lingers, won't depart, A shattered piece of me, Haunted by the remnants of what used to be. Yet through the darkness, faint and thin, A spark ignites from deep within, To face the night and break the chains that bind my weary heart, To heal the wounds and find the strength to make a new start. In this relentless struggle, I seek to ease the pain, To rise above the haunting memory that drives me insane. Memory of a forgotten dream, you linger in my mind, A relentless shadow, a piercing scream that's intertwined. But I will fight against the night, reclaim what's left of me, And find the peace that once was lost, setting my spirit free.
