Echoes Behind the Tapestry

Written in free time, from: Creative writing

In the dim attic of a mind that catalogues memories, I heard a line that sounded like a sigh from a place never visited. It spoke of echoing recollections that reverberated through streets of glass and steel, hinting at a city built of whispers rather than stone. Each phrase was a thread, pulling together the fragmented shards of what might be: a melody humming in abandoned corridors, a scent of rain on copper roofs, a distant hum that never reached ears. I wove these strands into a tapestry, feeling growth as the disparate ideas interlaced without haste. The piece stands as a quiet testament to how memory can map horizons we have never walked.
