Echo

I am just an echo that
You sometimes holler at
Expect from me a response you see
I sometimes holler back

There's a chasm that's between 
Where you and I are meant to be 
Though all we know is the echo
That you have made of me

A sad well written poem to the point of how it can be for people sometimes. Well done Mike :)
