Echoes on the Forgotten Road

On this familiar road I tread, a bitter taste of dread,

I walk this path for one last time, with pride that’s cold as night,

Shedding fear, rage, and love’s sweet lie, to chase the fading light.

Emotions hide beyond the rim, where horizons swallow them,

No ache remains, indifference reigns, too late to say “forgive them”.
