Echo

Echo

A Poem by Max Whipple III
"

Failure follows me

"

I die a little more

with each memory

and each tear

and you drift

farther

..and farther


I want to look into you

and see myself as I was

the person who knew what he had

before throwing it all away

over

..and over


I carry you with me

your influence touches everything

and your words echo

reminding me of my failure

again

..and again
