Echoes Of A Mind Sep 2015
Was ist Zeit?
Zeit ist die Stunden, die Minuten und die Sekunden.
Die Zeit ist eine Augenblick, eine Ewigkeit und ein Tick-Tack.
Zeit ist die Vergangenheit, die Gegenwart und die Zukunft.
Wir können es nicht zurück bekommen
und wir können es nicht giben.
Zeit ist Zeit...

[Translated version of the poem]
What is Time?
Time is the hours, the minutes and the seconds.
The time is a moment, an eternity and a tick-tock.
Time is the past, the present and the future.
we can't get it back
and we can't give it away.
Time is time...
[this is what happened when my German-teacher told me to brainstorm about what time is :J]
Echoes Of A Mind Sep 2015
Empty...
that's how I feel.
Can you please show me
that this world is real?

Madness...
Rules in my head
and it's the shadow,
which follows me to bed.

Sorrow...
lures in the cornor.
Caused by the loss
of my mother.

Happy...
is an unknown word to me
it's something
that I never feel.

I'm tired...
Echoes Of A Mind Sep 2015
I'm tired...
Please just let me sleep...
Doctor! Doctor!
Please don't try to wake me.
I might only be seven
but God is calling me to heaven.
I tried to imagine the feelings of a person who is in pain due to sickness and don't want to live anymore. I don't know why the "I" ended up beeing a seven year old child.

won't learn to let go
Echoes Of A Mind Sep 2015
I'm starring up at the stars in the sky,
dreaming about another life.
A life 'out worries and fears,
of loosing those, who to me are dear.
Even though I know
that someday I have to let go.

Humans
Echoes Of A Mind Sep 2015
Humans...
What are they?
Creatures?
Beasts?
Please explain it to me again.
Humans are mysteries
With their secrets,
their lies
and their feelings.
All have something
hidden in their sleeves
things they don't
want others to see.

I want to be
Echoes Of A Mind Aug 2015
I want to be
The air you breathe
I want to be
Your shadow

I want to be
In your memory
I just want to be
Near you
When you just want to be with the one you love...

Dancing on...
Echoes Of A Mind Aug 2015
Some dance on flowers
Some dance on clouds
Some dance on feathers
While I dance on broken glass.

Waiting
Echoes Of A Mind Aug 2015
The days just pass by
and the calender
where the pages are beeing pulled off
One after another
Only missing the "He loves me, he loves me not"
Then it could have been a flower.

'Cause some days he messages me
Some days he doesn't
I just keep waiting
For that single message
which now and then makes my day.
Written on phone XD

Friends
Echoes Of A Mind Aug 2015
I want to tell them that
I miss them
when they aren't here

I want to cry
I want to laugh
with them

I want to be there
when they need me
and I hope they'll be there too
when I need them
Just a little poem I wrote some time ago.

One Word
Echoes Of A Mind Aug 2015
You say something to a person
thinking that it won't hurt.
But one single word
can keep reappearing in a person's mind
way longer than a bruise or a scar.
One word can follow a peson
until the day they die.
One word can push a person to the edge.
One word can steal one's confidence.
One word can destroy a life.
So think before you speak.
Maybe it's a little overdramatized, but the message should be clear.
I got the inspiration to the poem from my own life and the famous quote "think before you speak" which I've also used to end the poem with.
I didn't write a traditional type of poem this time and it is my first time writing a poem like this.

To the Grammar-Nazis: I apologize for typos and wrong grammar, but english isn't the "second language" which I've used most energy on.

The car crash
Echoes Of A Mind Nov 2014
The time seems frozen,
Or maybe it was stolen.
This can't be true,
Do I really have to lose you?

The car was crashed,
The time just passed.
His face was bloddy,
And a little bit muddy.

I saw the blinking light,
Told myself "it'll soon be allright."
The other car was lying on the side,
I heard them saying that somebody had died.

The time seems frozen,
Or maybe it was stolen.
This can't be true,
Do i really have to lose you?

My lover he quietly mumbles in pain,
"It feels like I have been hit by a train."
Thank god, he's okay.
I thought that while they carried him away.

Then I heard  somebody say,
"Is the woman over there okay?"
Everyone turned and stared,
At the woman, who was laying over there.
I turned my head too and felt a chill,
Because I was the one who had been killed.

The time seems frozen,
Or maybe it has just been stolen.
This just can't be true,
Did i really have to lose you?
I fell over one of my poems from 7th grade and edited it a little.

The Purple Butterfly
Echoes Of A Mind Nov 2014
A purple butterfly
in the dark night sky.

It fly over the town
and under the bridge.
Over the stars it flies.
To the moon, it have been.

A purple butterfly
in the dark night sky.

From a dream it was born.
From a dream of a dying child.
It makes no sound.
It can't be seen.
It just flies...
Just flies in the night.

A purple butterfly
in the dark night sky.

It flies in children's dreams...
'Cause it's looking.....
Looking for the dream it was born from.
But I know...
Know that it never will find it.
'Cause the child is dead,
and the child was Me...

A purple butterfly
in the dark night sky.
This is my first poem which I wrote i 7th grade.
