Brimming With Echoes

Brimming with echoes of their past When I dream of theses places I sometimes feel alone here I look around me and all I see Is a nothing a void in place I should be happy and free What is it that you tell me to do Where is it that you tell me to go Where I should go in this desert Why should I stay in this desert There is nothing for me there I seek refuge out of all this mess I seek out a friendly face to hold A friendly face to hold me To comfort me in sad times And keep me from the cold Cold dark damp places I see Sad times of sorrow and grief I choose to leave this place Seek the road to happiness

Yes and Yay. No point sticking around in hell if there is a ticket on an outgoing plane. You are too sweet to stick it out in desert hell.

Still loving the ending of this one. How you choose to leave and seek happiness. Can't seem to find a poem I have not read yet. I am clicking in circles. haha.

Mostly, that's the best/only 'therapy' ('seek the road...')... Nice, sad (with hope) poem... Terry (You have a lot of 'echo' poems, all of them well done!)

This endless dreary that drags us down. We wake in the morning still wearing a frown. We look up to heaven to answer our plight. Awaiting an angel to get through the night.
