Destiny Echo Poem
My heart skips a few beats
before I realize that I’m not breathing.
Am I dying? I ask myself
but there is no response
Is this the end?
I close my eyes
It feels so much like falling
much like suffocating
much like nothing
I don’t know what’s going on around me
all I know is that I just felt a breath leave me
my eyes fly open and see the people around me
My heart must be beating
I don’t know if this is a reality
or if I’m dreaming
All I know is I hear screaming
Then I realize
It’s coming from me
Out of my lungs
Through my mouth
Out into the already intoxicated air
Evaporating everything
I don’t know if this is a reality
Or if I’m dreaming

Destiny Echo Poem
Today I painted a picture to
Represent my life and who I am
I had many colors at my fingertips
But I only used a few, I started with
A silver blue, to represent the calm & serene
River I am
I let red symbolize the wildfire of anger
That courses through my veins
I let black, the color of asphalt stand for the suffering
And the pain
A snowy white
Was to signify my bubbling laughter
The kind you always want to chase after
I used a magnificent purple, like the
Color of a ripe grape to represent
The colorful imagination where much
of my time has been spent
Orange was there to embody
My freedom, like a little girl
Spinning with her bright summer
dress spread all around her
A nice sunshine yellow stood
For the creativity locked inside me
When I finished painting that picture
I thought how unique, Destiny.

Destiny Echo Poem
My arms are outstretched
Searching
Finding nothing in this lonely,
Black pit of nothingness
My eyes are tightly shut
I am unable to see
I open my mouth to scream,
Somebody,
Please save me from this misery
I’ve found no way out
I have given up
Please don’t come looking for me
I am lost and forever I will be,
Trapped with misery
because we all know, She loves company

Falling on my umbrella
Rain drops dripping down

Destiny Echo Poem
No matter how hard we try we can never catch that Runaway Train
We must stare at the problems that face us in daily life and live with them
Because if we don’t live with them, how will we learn from them?
The mistakes that life brings are meant for us to learn and make again
We can’t just hop onto the Runaway Train that takes us to a place far away
Where all of our problems just seem to fade
“Runaway Train never going back, Wrong way on a one way track…”
These are lyrics by Soul Asylum
This is what I am reminded of when I hear the words “Runaway Train”

Destiny Echo Poem
Tomorrow Is Another Day
Tomorrow is another day
Aren't you glad that you survived yesterday?
You can stop holding your breath
just live your life
You never know when it might be gone
so open your eyes
Don’t worry,
don’t cry
Just remember
Tomorrow is another day
Everyday holds a meaning
Whether it be truth or a lie
Don’t hold back,
don’t hide
Discover what it is you seek
and don’t worry if you stray
‘Cause all you have to do is remember,
Tomorrow is another day

Destiny Echo Poem
She didn't look like herself
Something was wrong
She was too pale
Her lips were painted red
And her skin was ice cold
Her eyes a soft blue
Young but so old
The faint beating of her fragile heart
Such a sight would tear you apart
She lays in her bed limbs un-moving
Like a horror scene straight out of a movie
Her breath like an air conditioner comes out cold
The note on her dresser she had to fold
Her eyes glaze over
And her lungs collaspse
She takes one last breath
And she dies with a laugh

Destiny Echo Poem
The snow falls lightly over my shoulders
Acting as my shadow.
It allows me to walk the night
Invisible.
The snowflakes fall on my face
Sending shivers through me
Leaves me freezing.
I wrap my arms around myself
And stand beneath the light pole.
Waiting for eternal rest,
from this cold feeling brushing my shoulder.
death.

Destiny Echo Poem
I can't tell you what it is
I can't even tell you what it feels like
I can only tell you that it's the worst pain
You'll ever feel in you life
It'll feel like every bone in your body is breaking
Like every breath you take will be your last
Like every muscle in your body is failing to support you
And thats only the least of it.
There is so much more!
You eyes will feel like they're bleeding from all the tears you'll shed.
You tounge will swell with words that you can't say.
Your ears will make you question everything coming into them.
And your heart,
Well thats the worst part of it!
It will feel as though its stopped beating...
And who knows, maybe it has.
