Echoes

13 September 2004

I cried today.
Big sobs,
as the tears rolled down my cheeks.
I am tired of fighting,
Tired of stumbling,
Tired of the emptiness


It’s a hopeless thing.
To get up each day,
After a restless night
To find courage, purpose and will
To do it all again
Only, what for?

Where the companion to wipe away the tears.?
To soothe the everlasting pain?
To remind me of a better time.
Echoes are the only sound
Only emptiness echoes,
People fill the space where echoes live.

Loneliness and echoes,
The only friends
In emptiness.

Hello Julius. I have just started reading your bloggs. I am only at the beginning I think as I am not to sure how to navigate yet but am trying. Is there anyone in your life that makes it bearable? I guess that time would drag slowly by each day just falling into another day. I hope that there is happiness out there for you. In the meantime I will continue to read what you are posting and learn more about you. Does Erica get much time to catch up with you? Do you ever get out and around? I will find out more as I read. I hope you dont mind. If you do please let me know. I do not want to intrude. Take care. Coral Ladwig. xxx
