Lot of Echo

By Mark Miller 
I wait for her anxious glare
To give a stare,
Or acknowledgment,
That I am here or over there

Such beauty unoticed,
By people owned dreams.
Face of angel did startle the amputated heart 
Racine composure set no worry

One in a billion stand of stoic rock
Of one who belongs of ancient tell
Saintly eyes give away heaven scorn hell
Of being and longing nostalgia kills the hope
Hold fast the Props contrived by antiqued coarse gone lost

Do we long for Midnight's death In our hour glass filled vain 
Or search the space in spite of time absent valor  
Staring into narcissists pond all are alone with echos vacant essence

I'm tying the first stanza---which I really like---with the last stanza, a message (seemingly) of despair/anti-hope. Did I get it? / Should I 'get' it?...Or should it simply be open to interpretation? All in all: Intriguing! ~gw
