Locked in Time

In response to bwarren’s
The Sunday Whirl Wordle #695

An echo of what could’ve been
fades away with each second
The power of time squashes
the voices of friends gone away

A brief burn of passion
before the cold seeps in
Can’t hear the crackling flames
or show what once was real

What could’ve been never let out
held behind that sturdy lock of time
Never will the embers ignite
to warm the heart and soothe the soul
