Echo

This was actually a Honors English class assignment, but I posted  it here.
  
       River
happiness is talking.
I speak as quick as lightning
as lightning...
I have seen my prince
my gorgeous prince, i have seen.
though evil is upon him
that narcissistic boy
the boy
I love him
though Hera has cursed me
my curse to repeat
I felt like a river,
violently twisting 
constantly running,babbling, 
then, 
drying up, a drop of water remained,
my ability to Repeat,
              Repeat,      
         Repeat,
My lighting speech is detained
I speak what others say
an Echo in life.
The boy talked
I responded with repetition
he shut me down.
 I felt like a flower,
beautiful, but picked, killed
for he had a love
himself
only himself.

"B"

The angels have come
too take her away
up too the stars
to dance among the clouds
i know she must be "B"eautiful
in her robes of white
wings of feathers
flying pain free
taken from her bed
away from the monster
she is so brave
she has died 
she chose  to leave 
and finally... go... home.

'lord lift her up to you 
accept her
i know you will
give her love 
crown her princess
of your palace
make her happy
i know you will.'

Forever Strong

Smells sterile
like powder fresh gloves
doctors in scrubs
running wheeled beds through the hall
in the room plain yet bright.
Tubes and wire
in and out her shrunken body
while she lays in her pale bed.
Sitting in the chair
to the left of the bed
holding her hand.
spidery veined fingers
grasping my wanting hand
lightly twitching
still so tough
lightly resting
forever strong
