echoes

echoes

A Poem by Brandon Mathis

Please play me

Don’t press rewind

You won’t like my life

All my lies

That I have made people believe

And all the reasons why

Why I try?

 

Now you’re the reason

I’m running in fast forward

Trying to slow down

Just to see a glimpse

Now I’m itching

Just to get out

 

It feels like prison

And I echo these walls

So you hear my voice

And I’m going to tell it all

I want to taste the air

But you don’t care

Can anyone take me there?


I'm so weak 

raveled up in your speaker

you won't let me go

you wont let me know

that i'm just a drifting soul

echoeing the sound of the weak

 

This life less loved

It’s been too real to feel

These wounds to deep to heal

What’s this made of?

Who am I?

And who have I become

What have I done?

Wow Brandon...this one flowed so well, and each line echoed with intense emotion. Very well written. I can feel the sadness and worry in this piece. Very very well done!
