A Name Said Once

A Name Said Once
Verse
Whispered soft in empty halls,
A name dissolves against the walls.
One echo floats, then dies alone,
No one remembers, no one knows.
Fingers trace where memories bled,
But the paper turns and the ink is dead.
A heartbeat slows, the shadows lean,
The space between recalls a dream.
Chorus
A name said once,
And never again.
A flicker of soul
In a world of men.
A whisper lost in the black expanse,
You exist only in that glance.
A name said once,
Then gone,
Then gone.
Verse
Candles burn but give no light,
Eyes meet eyes but lose the sight.
Every story, every face,
Collapses into empty space.
The ground remembers, the sky forgets,
Time moves on, but you regress.
A shadow speaks your syllables,
But they dissolve in the unreachable chill.
Chorus
A name said once,
And never again.
A flicker of soul
In a world of men.
A whisper lost in the black expanse,
You exist only in that glance.
A name said once,
Then gone,
Then gone.
Bridge
Say it again—
No.
Let it fade—
Yes.
A breath, a shiver,
A memory dies.
Final Chorus
A name said once,
And never again.
A flicker of soul
In a world of men.
No one hears, no one calls,
Only the void remembers at all.
A name said once,
Then gone,
Forever gone.
