Every Hallway Echos

To even see the sterile white walls
Eyes might flood with tears
In hopes to float away and be
Anywhere but here.

Here every voice reminds me
Of a voice you couldn't hear
Lying comatose in the dark
You never saw our tears.

Never heard me whisper
With our prayers you would pull through
Every useless whisper
A wasted "I love you"

Here every sound haunts me
Makes me think of me of failure, defeat
Here every hallway echos
With your heart's last beat.
