the echoes of time

Only the echoes of time like ripples in the water or a mother and a daughter and the sun shining below although its out of sight we know its shining through the night but we don't know if it will last although its here today today will turn into the past and so we wait with hopeful minds hope for a life eternal for echoes we leave behind echoes in time...
I can't stop thinking of the better days before i knew i was lost in a maze that keeps me going in circles, stuck here on the ground
