Echo's From The Past

By Silver Angel

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Life was hardWhen I was youngerI prayed for death to take meI hated the bright shining sunFor the sun meant a new dayAnd what good is a new dayWhen it is filled with painSshh..do you hear that?Echo's from the pastI survived, yes I really didThose terrible, cold, dark daysNow I look to the sun's raysIn favor of a new dayFor now I seeWhat brought me painOnly made me a stronger personIt made me who I am Sshh..do you hear that?Echo's from the pastThe echo's tell meWhat is in the pastCan no longer hurt meSo move on andMake new echo'sHappy echo'sAnd look back to the pastWith a surviver's smileSshh..do you hear that?Echo's for the future Written October 20th, 2001 © on Oct 20 2001 01:16 PM PST   0 • 10
