Cave

Shadows breathe
In a heart of stone
Small beings
Cast endless echoes

The wall remembers
Faces fade through light
Steps without names
Speak in broken time

Dust falls
Like forgotten prayers
A pulse remains
Under the skin of night

I follow the marks
Left by silence
Cold light
Burns slow

Shadows breathe, walls remember
Shadows breathe, walls remember
Echoes fall, echoes rise
Inside the cave, inside the mind

Eyes close
Walls listen
And again
My heart.
