Elegy for Haunted Karma

In shadowed whispers where lost dreams abide,  
Karma's echo sings in the lingering tide.  
Forgotten deeds stitched deep in the night,  
Bearing their burdens, they flicker and fight.

Once vibrant laughter now haunts hollow halls,  
The specters of choices that time gently calls.  
Each choice a footstep on paths overgrown,  
A dance with our shadows; we reap what we've sown.

O restless spirits beneath moonlit gleam,  
You linger like fog upon forgotten stream.  
What debts do you carry from dances gone wrong?  
What songs fill your silence with sorrow so strong?

With heavy hearts burdened by memories past,   
We gaze through the veil where reflections are cast.    
Every misstep carves scars yet unseen—   
Lessons etched deeply where hope used to gleam.

Yet still we must wander this oft-tangled maze;   
For haunted by echoes of long-painted ways,   
We search for redemption amid fading light—    
To craft fleeting futures while mourning our plight.

Rest softly tonight as your stories unfold;   
In twilight's embrace let forgiveness take hold.    
For haunted karma threads love through despair—     
In darkness lies beauty if only laid bare.
